ROOM FOR MORE?
- First Place – 10/29/08 – Up Close and Personal Challenge – Squirrels group.
I wonder how they do it??? This friendly chipmunk/ground squirrel will fill his cheeks to maximum capacity before leaving our doorstep.
Who me? I didn’t take the peanuts!!

Thanks Steve – Oh yes… he ’s fine. He and his friends stashed about 50 lbs over the summer. This spring we’ll probably have peanuts and hazelnuts growing everywhere (although I doutbt that they really grow in PA!)

three comments:
1) Belated congratulations on your win.
2) I had a new squirrel show up on my window sil for the free nuts. He didn’t understand that nothing is free. He was supposed to put on a show for his meal. Like your guy he was loading up and then taking off. I fixed him by chopping up the nuts.
3) I think this photo would be great in an “all you can eat” advertisement for a restaurant.
