that's the "You bess stay away from my stash!" grunting & teeth chattering. Our squirrels do it all the time to each other. Cute but if a rival gets too close, it's game on!
This is fantastic, great closeup and sound pickup. I had to laugh when I saw the sunflower seed shell fly past the lens and not long after the camera sabotage! Amusing creatures to watch.
Thx for uploading this! My mom's dogs absolutely love watching it. I was a little worried they would try to lunge into my laptop, but they seem to know it's not real. Full attention tho, like a kid watching cartoons.
Cheeky buggers. Not scared of you. If you've food, they'll stare at you. They'll take it from your hands then retreat up something. Then they'll come back for more, take it and retreat again. They'll eat anything.
It's cute until one has decided to nest under your tub. So loud, it wakes us up every morning at 7:10. They can't seem to get rid of him, so clever lol.
I have a grey squirrel I've been working with to eat out of my hand. He/she comes running to me now when I approach the park and make my call. He comes within 1 foot of my hand and I drop the nut which he takes far enough away to eat. The last 2 times he has been making a snorting noise like it's sneezing. Is this a warning or just a simple communication?
+Mary Schrek Don't know. They fascinate me. They have perfect good looks and personalities. I love their tails and the cute way they scurry down trees to see me. Shame they can't be kept.
