Hi everyone.

This morning between 10-10:20am at Plowman's Park (SE corner of Glen Erin Dr./Battleford Rd., behind senior's building), 2 Red Squirrels.  

At Lake Wabukayne between 10:20-11:50am, one Red Squirrel hanging upside down on bird feeder, having a good feed.  One male Eastern Grey Squirrel acting completely nuts - running, jumping, twirling in air, rolling on grass, doing sommersaults, running towards tree trunk then bouncing off it.  Hilarious!   :lol:  Lake Wabukayne:  NE corner of Glen Erin Dr./Windwood Dr., behind condo and school.

I have a video, still in the camera after a few weeks, of a grey squirrel exhibiting the same crazy behavior in my back yard. I knew at the time he couldn't be drinking fermented Hummingbird nectar 'cause the feeder wasn't up so how about 'squirrel nip'?? I'll post it on Dropbox one of these days! :)
