Squirry and some tricks!

He said; "Helooo, anybody have a nut for me"?
I said; "Oh no, he discovered the study window"!

Two stories here of Squirry and his tricks.
The first 8 pictures shows an event when he crossed my back to get to the nuts.
And the final 4 pictures shows Squirry at our study window.
Two videos are included to show some live action.
Hope that you enjoy the show!

First, a video to show how we became friends!

Here I thought it was a normal feed!

But of course a surprise was waiting for me!

Wow! Squirry jumped on my back to get to the nuts!

I suppose that he thought it was a short cut!

What a cute way to gather his nuts!

And now for the study window story!

"Please"! he said, "Just some nuts, pretty please"?

"Hey Troy, call your boss, I want some nuts mate"

How could I refuse? Check the video above!

"Ah, I have just buried a nut in this potplant"

That's all folks!

When we moved in here, I could never have imagined the fun that we would have with the little wild critters here. At the old place I used to feed them at a distance, but here they are right in my face.

Of course we will continue to nurture the little ones and try to create a safe haven for them. Thankfully there are a pair of nesting crows and a couple of Egyptian geese to guard against predatory birds.

Thank you for visiting a post by @papilloncharity

I like to leave them in the wild.

Ah! That squirrel is so cute and friendly! And rather bold to that he would jump on your back!
Lovely that you have them right up close to your home - such fun! And makes for some wonderful photos! That last one of the squirrel is beautiful with the colors!
Thanks for sharing, it made me smile!

Hahaha, thank you and this morning I watched how he outwitted a cat.
Lightning fast these little guys and of course he is right here now again at the window begging for nuts.
Amazingly the Egyptian goose has now also discovered the study window.
Soon it will be an animal farm here Lol

Hahaha, the Egyptian Goose woman has also now discovered the study window my friend. So it's become a game of nuts for the squirrel and bread for the duck, almost at the same time.

But here's the news. We saw the squirrel eating the worms in the Robin feeder this morning. As the Robins have a baby, Marian ran outside to replenish the worms for the Robins and the squirrel made a home on her back.
It was soooo funny.
I will post about it later today.
Blessings!

He was way too fast Lol

Thank you and I have noticed that they stay away from other people.
They visit only two houses here in the complex and in our case the previous owner fed them. In the other house is also an elderly lady that feeds them.
Real cute little critters.
Blessings!

Thank you mate and I am glad that we were destined to meet. At least they keep me on my toes and I am becoming accustomed to a sudden shock landing somewhere on my body out of nowhere. Hahaha

Hahaha, wait until you see what happened this morning my friend,
Talking about flinch resistance, I think that Marian is much better than me.
But that's why I am much younger than her Lol
Check out the post later today.

I see that you have a daily regular visitor. That squirrel tapping on your window looks big. I guess everyday is a fun day for the little critters with you around.

Crows and goose to protect, definitely great at sounding the alarm.

Squirrel has become very familiar having you around, he must think he has 5 Star location in this neighbourhood Stephen.

A squirrel friend! I've always wanted one, but never managed to get one used to me. That last picture looks like he was modeling for a haute couture magazine.
