Hi everyone.  Sighted on Saturday morning:

Red Squirrel #1:  8:30AM - Lake Wabukayne (NE corner of Glen Erin Dr./Windwood Dr., behind condo and school).  

Red Squirrel #2:  9:30AM - Plowman's Park (NE corner of Glen Erin Dr./Montevideo, behind church and school).  Very noisy critter - loud chirping and high pitched whirring!   :lol:

These little guys are super fast!  :D

I haven't seen them here for a long time but this year I have two hanging around the back yard and I have been able to lure them to my fence top feeding site for some great photo-ops. They're really cute and, unlike the giant(?) grey squirrels, they don't seem interested in the bird feeder! :)

It's been really quiet lately, (just sparrows and chickadees), but hopefully a bit of snow will attract a bigger variety of birds when ground feeding becomes tougher!

Awwww ... SO cute!  I love seeing Red Squirrels ... and Chipmunks.  :D  I never see Red Squirrels North of Plowman's Park and never see Chipmunks North of Riverwood.  Used to see lots of Chipmunks at Rattray Marsh and High Park in Toronto - they sit on your head, shoulders, lap, climb up your legs, etc.   8)
