Fox Squirrel

Our garden is over run with gray squirrels. There is one Fox Squirrel that comes to visit the bird feeders. He is very cautious. He approaches slowly and takes time to sit up and look around. I caught him just outside my office window trying to decide which way to go.
What kind of squirrels roam through your garden?

I kept clicking on this on my dashboard and it kept saying it wasnt there to see.. and I almost forgot to check it again today.. Glad I died. Cute drawing. Never heard of these squirrels. You might have to redate it and post it again. I bet others did the same thing.

I've never heard of this type of squirrel but it sure is a cutie! But then again, I'm a huge squirrel fan.

nice drawing Lisa!

What a cutie squirrel even though they can be annoying. I have never seen a squirrel here in AZ, not sure they can live here with the heat.

This is a great drawing, Lisa! I've seen maybe one or two of these in my life. Not often.

We have mostly gray squirrels. I don't think I've ever seen one like this, or maybe I didn't know what I was seeing. They are fun to watch. I put bits of bread or cookies on my deck railing each morning to keep them away from my feeder and they always start chatting to me when I go out the door. Good sketch!

I don't have squirrels in my garden, but from my office, I have a direct view in Cezanne's garden. And there are red squirrels jumping from one tree to the other. Lovely
