By this time in May we usually see a lot of young birds in the woods and on the water. Given the below normal temperatures in our area and heavy spring flooding the natural cycle has been delayed by a few weeks. Squirrels don’t seem to have been effected though as we’ve some young about. This young squirrel wasn’t scared off by my presence. He kept an eye on me but held his ground (and his nut) while I photographed him. I took a few shots and then I left him to it.

I’m surprised he stopped long enough for you to take those lovely photographs. The ones that visit us constantly dart, scurry, zoom everywhere. So cute!

Funny, I don’t remember him doing that. A happy discovery when I got home and looked at the day’s shots. Thanks Pete.

Cute shots, Belinda! You really caught their perky personality. I especially like the second one that shows off his bushy tail.
