Definitely a squirrel. They live right next to a squirrel hatchery.

just kidding!

Poor little squirrel, hope it didn't have a family to feed. When do they nest?

Just turned it on and saw. Pretty good size meal there!

It is a squirrel, face to the left. With the different shades now can tell. Hind legs to the right
Was neat seeing dad drop off dinner!

Which eagle cam is this? I've been watching the pair in PA and there are two babies in that nest.

Big sign of Spring today! I heard Western Chorus Frogs call in the vernal pond in the woods. I took some video while I was back there. If it turned out, I'll post it later.

Watched the one little one work its way out from under the parent, demanding food!

I suddenly feel very protective towards the squirrels around here.

 

[addy1]

lol they do feed a lot of critters. I feed them to make them fat and sassy

 

[MitchM]

I wonder how people would feel if I started posting pictures of the remains of deer fawns I find around here...
Funny how we humans respond to the realities of nature.

I hate to see anything dead, we have a lot of road kill around here. Too many cars.

 

[MitchM]

No, I mean from cougars that partially bury their kill.
I was out with the dogs once when, once we got back home, one of our dogs threw up a set of intestines from a deer fawn carcass...
Lovely...
Then I have to clean it up.
