I love squirrels! They're like miniature climbing monkeys with awesome balance and fingers.

Squirrel Appreciation Day was started back in 2001 by wildlife rehabilitator Christy Hargrove from Asheville, North Carolina, who is affiliated with the Western North Carolina Nature Center.  She picked mid-winter for the holiday because food is scarce for our furry and fluffy-tailed squirrel friends.

I like squirrels. :)

We have a few living in the neighbourhood, climbing trees and making a racket. They are very shy.

No squirrels in Australia
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Squirrels are popular here too

I personally enjoy lining them up, in order of height

I have to be careful though in case folks think I'm critter sizing   :zoinks:

I used to raise baby squirrels who lost their mothers to dogs, cats or cars.  Bottle feeding an infant squirrel is time intensive, and when it grows up it tears your house to shreds trying to get out.  Horny little buggers.

Squirrels can be very cute. But they are also very tasty.
"I’m fearless in my heart.
They will always see that in my eyes.
I am the passion; I am the warfare.
I will never stop...
always constant, accurate, and intense."
