🥰You’re welcome!

I actually had a mother bring her babies to me last fall. The last squirrel in the video is “Charlie”, her and her brother “George” were the ones brought to my by their mother “Veronica”🥰

Thank you!☺️

Those two are the best! Unfortunately I haven’t seen Sasha in about 2 months😔and Charlie was one of two babies that Veronica brought to me last fall🥰her brother George comes too!

@@TamsPlace Aww! That is so sweet. It's a family gathering. Lol.

That’s so sweet! They are just a hoot to watch, and have been so much enjoyment over the past year☺️

Thank you☺️

That’s such an awesome story!! I’m sure the ponds drew them in☺️

😂

Thank you! The trick is to feed them with whole nuts. They’re bigger so it lessens the chance of them getting your finger😉but squirrels are unpredictable, so it’s a chance you take. It took me about 4 months to accomplish this😊

Oh, I do! I always wash my hands and the blanket over my lap stays outside.

Thank you, and you’re right! I actually had a close call with a squirrel and a hawk right in my backyard. It scared my death! Luckily the squirrel got away and I’m much more cautious now.

@@TamsPlace I'm glad you understood without thinking I'm criticizing your excellent video! Just giving you an idea, maybe is not applicable in your beautiful backyard, I have the luck to have a wooden area behind my fence, so I put the feeders there, I planted Bridal Wreaths around them, and put some fallen branches like in X shapes so it's almost impossible to a hawk to go and catch birds, rabbits or squirrels meanwhile they eat. Coyotes and foxes are other kind of predators that attack at ground level, so I put several branches that I cut from my shrubs, when I pruned them, the rabbits and squirrels can hide them when they are in danger. At night, I throw some apples slices and carrots to the rabbits, but I always throw them underneath shrubs or by the fence, because of the owls. I'm sorry for the negativity but these poor creatures are exposed to dangerous predators all the time.

@@ZackHeinkel2000 that’s awesome that you care for them and do so much! I know they appreciate having the safety. I always welcome constructive criticism😊

@@TamsPlace Thanks!
