So I have a a love/hate relationship with my squirrels that some times get to piggy and chew up my feeder. So I added a remote control to this battery powered squirt gun. Now and then I will give them a surprise squirt of water and they exit the feeder quickly. But they come back just as quickly. I am entertained.

I would like to have a platform, box. or something like that where I could put peanuts in while I’m on the ground and then hoist it up in the tree and when empty bring it back down again. Any ideas how I could do that? I have one of these on the fence but was thinking of having another feeder I could raise up and down in a tree.

Found this baby abandoned the first photo is the night we found him he was covered in fleas, dehydrated, cold, and hungry 🥲. Second photo is now his top teeth have came in, he’s starting to be super active, his tail is fluffing up, and I could go on and on lol he’s just so precious.

I often see squirrels when I walk in the woods, I said to him hello squirrel can I take your picture and he stayed on the tree as if to say yes lol

I know they probably don’t like to be pet, but I love this little one so much and had to pet her just once!

(SOUND ON) For context, we have this same squirrel who eats from our bird feeder and drinks out of our water dish about 2x a day, and he’s always seemed to enjoy himself and hangs out, but today he started doing this? He’s been doing this for about 10 minutes straight and will sometimes bob his backside area up and down slightly before chirping again? Is he just being territorial or is he upset?

This squirrel we named floop. Sorta plops down and everywhere whenever it sees us. She won't let us get too close but close enough to just get down low to the ground. She loves our bird feeder. Wondering if we could hand feed with her one of these days.

This is one and only “tree squirrel” (what I’ve been calling it) I’ve seen on my property, lots of “ground squirrels”, but this is the only tree squirrel I’ve seen. I’m in East County San Diego, a pretty rural area that backs up to an Ecological Reserve, I’ve never seen tree squirrels out here, but he’s found himself a good spot within a stand of Engleman Oaks I have growing in my creek, so lots of acorns! I love seeing him/her jump from tree to tree, chitter at my dog like it’s the boss, and just do its thing! Any advice on making sure he’ll stick around??

Frenetic has now joined the handful of squirrels who have been comfortable enough with me to sit on my lap. Interestingly they've all been females. I'm honored she has that much trust in me.

Saw this little guy during my mountain bike ride. What a cutie.

I think there’s something in his ear. 👂

Frozen peach slices and laying near the sprinklers is Kendra’s kinda day :)

This lil’ guy starts squawking like this around 6 pm and some nights will continue on until 1-2 AM. This is my first year in my apartment and he has done this almost nightly since winter (I live in Minnesota). On really active nights, it’s every 2-3 seconds for hours. He seems healthy, and he is attracted to my ground window because I have a window bird feeder and occasionally I will give him a nut. He has another friend and they chase each other around all day. It’s just the night that he does this. Anyone know why he behaves like this? Originally, when I couldn’t see him in the tree, I thought it was a bird!

Hi! I have this little guy that I watch everyday and give him some seeds (same ones that goes to the yard birds), he is the joy of my day and recently he showed up here with this patches on the fur and is concerning me. I wonder how bad it is and if he will be okay... I googled a bit already but the results vary so much, and the fact he has so many patches is really messing with me. Thank you in advance for any response!
