Hi everyone, it’s Cindy here! Don’t listen to Millie and Walter. They don’t know what really is cute and what is not. Be prepared for some ultra cute pictures and video.
We have a very large willow tree in our front yard. Over the years many woodpeckers have hammered holes in this tree. Until recently we have never actually seen anything using these holes for homes. On a very rainy morning Charlie saw a mother squirrel bring her babies to a large hole in this willow tree.
She made a total of four trips to bring the whole family to the new nest. Since she was moving them during a rain storm we figured the reason was because they were getting soaked where they were.
The following day the sun came out and so did the babies.
These adorable babies spent much of the day running up and down the willow tree. Here is a short video of some of the action.
If you can’t see the video you can go here to view it.
Yesterday this group of hooligans was scurrying around the backyard while Millie and Walter were inside. The pups sure had fun were frustrated watching all this action through the windows.
We actually aren’t sure if these are grey squirrels or red squirrels. We thought the mom that was carrying the babies was a grey squirrel (we were viewing during a rain storm from a long distance) but when looking at the babies they seem to have more reddish fur than expected. We do have both species living on our property so it could be either one. No matter what they are they sure are cute and fun to watch.
my momma sang the awww-song… butt I’m with you Milli and Walter… btw: you have cool channel in your window-tv… are they free to air or have I to pay some nuts to get the squirrel channel here too?
We see cute…Millie and Walter see a toy/supper.

Now, what would be cute–in our opinion–is you two catching them…BOL!
But we have to admit SHE thought they were adorable……humans…they are just strange at times.
Well, you know we have to agree with Millie and Walter – these are so NOT our favorite buddies, but you are right, the video is so cute. Those little ones sure can move fast. We also feel compelled to applaud their mom for her loving care. We still don’t like them – BOL.

How adorable! Mr. N would be going crazy lol.
Oh we love squirrels here. Mommy got to pet baby squirrels a few years ago. They had fallen out of their nest and their was no sign of a Mommy squirrel anywhere about so our neighbor brought them to Mommy to rescue. Mommy found a squirrel rescue to turn them over to but she had fun taken care of them until the rescue people got here. They didn’t even have their eyes open yet. Mommy called the rescue people later and they said they did great and had been released into the wild once they were old enough. ~Tuiren & Family
DINNER!!!!!! WoooHoooo!!! BUFFET TIME!!!! What?? Hey, that’s what I thinks when I looks up in MY TREE and see that squirrel’s nest! I’m waitin’….I knows they gots to come down sometime….☺

Mom says they are SOOOOOCUTE. I say …Invasion! First Ruby’s tree…now yours!
They are incredibly cute!!!!! What fun for you to watch them grow up… if Millie and Walter don’t get them first!
We just discovered a squirrel nest on a branch over top of our deck. Then we saw the mom who was definitely lactating. It’s going to be interesting with the pups and the baby squirrels in the near future!
Skwerrils – I are gettin hungry.
Finn and Charley would go nuts!! Momma thinks it is too cute too. What’s wrong with you humans?!
How wonderful! Well captured!
Holy cuteness. I watched a mama move her family before. It is fascinating actually. Now maybe they will be there every year. I also have both types in my yard. Lovely!

Movin’ on up

Those squirrels finally got a piece of the pie.
I think you dogs should do a foreclosure on them.
Thanks for being a friend
