Squirrel ears are not
quite like snowflakes, but many
are fairly distinct.

Fox squirrels standing at a U shaped branch union on a tree. It is a warm day in Ann Arbor, Michigan at the University of Michigan and this squirrel was finding refuge from the sun.

Photo taken through a window. Outside, a grey squirrel looks in, one front paw resting on the frame. In the background, a baby squirrel looks on, resting both front paws on an empty miniature picnic table.

Fox squirrel in Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan. She is standing tall in mulch - no doubt thinking that there should be No Kings in the USA.

Young fox squirrel standing tall in the grass at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Finding a good picture in a group is the one that you like the most. It is not perfect, but if it speaks to you, then it is worth saving and sharing.

Hello Poetry of Nature peeps. I caught Mom & Junior playing. It's amazing how patient she is with him. She's been teaching him how to forage & bury nuts for winter. See yesterday's video for that fun. Enjoy!🥜🌰

For the first time in a while I’ve got some baby #squirrels visiting the garden. I hope the extra food helps. Summer babies don’t usually do as well as ones born at the start of the year. #sqrlpix #SquirrelsOfBluesky #Squirrelsky #SquirrelScrolling

A tiny squirrel stands on a paving stone strewn with seeds, nuts, corn and empty shells eating.

your grass is too tall when you

New York City has
more than Central Park squirrels.
Still not sure that's true.

Eastern grey squirrels standing up among some plants that cover a giant boulder in New York City's Central Park. This is one of my favorite places on earth. Squirrels are keeping me sane one day at a time.

Fox squirrel pancaking on a cement bench on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on a hot late summer day. No doubt, the squirrel is exhausted by all the BS out there in the world. Well, mostly what is happening by the party in charge in DC.

I'm obsessed with the new squirrel friend we have in our backyard. He is soooo cute. He's like the chihuahua of squirrels. Much smaller than the grey squirrels, but has no issue fighting them off for his peanuts. 😅 #squirrelsofbluesky
