Filling his belly too! 🙂 Right now, my squirrels are hiding nuts everywhere, I had my bluebird box open after cleaning it out the other day and just found a nut laying in it, lol.
Fortifying itself for the work of gathering no doubt. I miss seeing squirrels with bushy tails. The ground squirrels here have long straight hairy ones. I think they’ve gone into hibernation mode already because I haven’t seen any for about a week now. We’re down to the low 30’s every night now after the cold snap that took us down to the 20’s for several days.

I guess he worked up an appetite from running back and forth getting ready for winter.

He’s sporting a fine fur coat from all those nuts. Love the backlit tail catching the sun’s glow!

That is cold. Our squirrels don’t hibernate but build nice warm nests and lay in a good supply of food.
