We have been feeding the squirrels off our back porch for at least 5 years. It started with Mama Squirrel who still comes on most days for handful after handful of peanuts (and occassionally cashews because she's our favorite!). Mama has brought her babies over the years because she trusts us. She even eats out of our hand, and has come into the house a time or two to follow us to the peanut canister.
Today's picture is of "Peanut" who I usually just call "Baby Squirrel". I had a tough time photographing him through the open door holding Max back. Max has not yet figured out the "family code" of not chasing our pet squirrels. Allee our cat knows better but Max has not learned the rules yet.
So here is Peanut... he's a cutie.
