Thanks so much. I truly appreciate your support; it keeps me sharing 😊

Thanks so much

Such a cutie

I thought you would like this, haha. Hope you have a great day

I think he got hurt and hid in his second home, and then had to fight his way to regain his territory and main hole, further injuring him. So he was super skittish while he healed, and, now that he’s mostly healed, he’s showing extra aggression to reclaim his status as the alpha/dominant male of the territory. I do think it’s Jeannette, and that the behavior changes are from going through some rough months. Giving him extra love

❤️🐿️

It is so hard seeing the stress that they live through. I can only hope that our patio gives them a bit of comfort and peace from their struggles. Such amazing creatures.

As to their fighting, mine always just chase and push each other, not really intending injury. (I think their injuries are mostly close calls with predators, slipping stones, scratches from wire and such). However, the past two weeks Jeannette has been tackling with enough force that the other gives out a squeak, which none of them have ever done in my yard. The only time I’ve ever seen one kind of be like that is during healing: trying to retain dominance in the territory while not at 100% by showing extra force. My extra efforts the past few days to make Jeannette feel safe seem to have significantly decreased his aggression to the others

@@scindylottcritters A shorter tail is the result of a fight between them. So sometimes a baby chipmunk has a very short tail. I think it's the rules of their society.

Thank you! 😃

Thanks so much. Made my day. I feel so blessed that I can give them this safe place; it is the whole reason I share their cuteness: to pass along the joy they bring me

Thank you! You too!

Thank you! 😊

As I tell my cats, “friends not food!”

Thanks so much. I hope you have a gorgeous day

❤️🐿️

Thanks so much. I hope your day is amazing

So friendly and so sweet

She is so ridiculous! Hahaha. She makes me laugh so hard

Exactly! Hard to believe that I was ever skittish of my red squirrel friends!

Thanks! Took me a while to think of the right fit, but I cracked myself up when this fit so perfectly

I have had that experience with grackles (black birds) during migration! Hitchcock indeed! However, this 6-8 ravens…. Louder and more Unnerving! I think because they are so much bigger. Ravens are the size of large hawks. Very cool…. But definitely gave me chills!

@@scindylottcritters I Didn’t Know That About Ravens ❤️ How Amazing & A Chilling

His gesture to get my attention was so hilarious that I couldn’t resist repeating it. Cracked me up

Thanks. He’s a cute little guy

Hahaha exactly

She really is 😊

Hilarious!!!!!

Thanks so much. Hope your day is gorgeous!

Thanks

Amazing creatures

Thanks

Hilarious! Will do! Haha

It was fascinating to watch. They must have dug it quite deep for the one squirrel to have been down there eating deep enough that the other felt comfortable stealing from the top. I was so worried about squiggy, but, I suppose that’s why she doesn’t keep all her eggs in one basket

@@scindylottcritters For that reason, they don't hide it all in the house, but hide it evenly elsewhere.

Preferably one without a critter in it hahaha

Also, another excellent accompaniment. Love how Squiggy is also singing!

“This is my song” by Carbon Leaf. One of my absolute favourite bands

I was pretty proud of myself for figuring out how to cut squiggy into the sound. Squiggy’s song cracks me up.

So true

Thanks so much

Exactly

I feel bad for laughing so hard. I love that you always leave kind words to chipmunk caretakers! 😊😊❤️ Here in Australia we don't get to see chipmunks so often, but tomorrow Im visiting squirrel family sanctuary. I might get to feed them nuts, wish me luck, Yippee!

@@bravepoodle Thank you. I can't believe anyone remembers me. I hope they are happy for a short time because I have been watching chipmunk channels for a long time. Have a happy weekend. 😝❤

They usually don’t hurt each other: squiggy totally landed on her feet. Their reflexes and agility astound me. They get hurt all the time, but not usually from a territory tiff

Hilarious

Cracks me up every time. She’s the only one who comes when I call her, and now she’s added a song. So cute!

I always have a few like that, and they seem to do fine. There’s one that comes by with no tail at all. He’s super skittish

I assume they loose it getting caught in something….like a predator paw

Oh thank you! I crack myself up, and I am so relieved that others appreciate the choices too

So many peanuts….so little time

Hoping you have a fabulous day

Thanks 😊

Lmao. Bill truly is the prettiest of the squirrels….and he knows it! Haha
