This is my pet squirrel Mama. She is my girl. She and I have a bond like no other. She runs to me from the back of my 1/3 acre property when I call her name. Most days, she hears my car(or my son's car) pull into the driveway and is on our deck waiting for us... peaking into our back door, anxiously waiting for her nut that we feed her.
We have been her family for the last 2 years. In that time she has had 6 litters of babies... hence the name Mama.
She won us over 2 years ago by bringing her 3 little itty bitty babies onto the deck with her onto our deck requesting nuts. It worked!! She hasn't left our yard since then, and has a wonderful luxurious nest in our 100 foot hemlock tree.
This girl brings us so much joy!!
She has also invited 7 other squirrels and 5 wild bunnies to be in our family.... our yard is a happening place!!
