This little guy..or gal....I am voting for a female, was doing acrobatics to get at some of the remaining 9 apples. They are more like wrinkly cherries they are so small. She was clinging by tiny toenails upside down and right side up..but moving so quickly I didn't get any shots of the tricks. Darn it. She is pretty spry for her shape. See that fat little tummy? I bet babies are already hibernating in there ....
Just look at these silly things..... who would want to eat them? But, there is so much snow... maybe there's not much for them to find unless it is up in a tree. There are spruce cones nearby ...but, perhaps a bit of fruit is on their dietary requirements list .... don't forget to click on each photo to see them bigger....not the silly wrinkly cherry like thingies of course, .........the cute little squirrel....
Uh, oh..... I think she sees me now....and is ready to bolt..... she was watching me all along, but enough is enough I guess.

Great photos. My husband feeds the squirrels peanuts and they have become a nuisance. As soon as the sliding door out the back is opened, they hear it and come a runnin'.
Squirrels are cute but they will empty our feeder in less than a day, along with polishing off the suet block too - and we live three stories up in an apartment building which means they have to climb up the brick wall to get to our balcony. Brazen little creatures!
Your squirrels seem a little darker coloured than ours. we have grey and a small red. what busy little things they are
