Yes we have squirrels in my neighborhood.  They love to tease my dog.

Yes.  I think they are cute.  I like to watch them run around and chase each other.

Yes we do have squirrels in my area.  They are so cute running around and climbing the trees.  They also can jump from one tree to another on connecting branches.

We have squirrels here in Illinois.  And they can be so entertaining to watch in the spring.  A few years ago we lived in an upstairs apartment.  There was a little squirrel that visited us one afternoon...he was so friendly.  He acted like he wanted to come in our house.  Months went by of our little friend hanging out in our neighborhood.  I asked my Mom one day (who owned the home we were renting) about her experience with this squirrel.  She said the neighbor found him when he was a baby.  Brought him in his home.  Had a little cage in the backyard for him.   It's no wonder he was such a friendly little guy.

Squirrels are a magnificent animal. Do you have them at your neighborhood? They were planted in my neighborhood just a couple of years ago because I was here when I was a young girl; I would have noticed that. They like peanuts with the shells on more than the corn. Now I don't have a rat problem. Thank you Squirrels, I would give them a hug but they are wild and would bite me but beautiful because this is National Hugging Day. Have a gr8 day  :present:

Do you want ours? We have 4 that I see. Two of them are "eating" the porch deck. Every morning, they come onto the porch and chip away at one of the boards. I don't know why, but I have to chase them all the time.  I think they also had something to do with my missing tulip and hyacinths. Don't know for sure, but they have left us an oak tree and a black walnut tree that died because I didn't get it transplanted in time. The oak is now 15 feet tall.

I don't believe I have seen one yet. But I do have lots and lots of skunks. I rather have squirrels than dealing with the skunk odor every now and then. They are so horrible. my house is right by the main road and every now and then you will smell a dead skunk killed by a driver. The smell will just penetrate your house for the entire night until the city removes them.

Yes.  :) Just a few days ago there was a very tame neighborhood squirrel that came to my back door and scratched at it -- his or her way, apparently, of letting me know they were hungry, because after I threw out some bread (and watched them chomp down, sitting on a fence post) they happily went on their way! Adorable, playful, sweet little critters.

We have an abundance of squirrels in our neighborhood.  I can see 5 or 6 at a time on my back patio. They do acrobatics on our bird feeders, trying to reach the sunflower seeds.  I'm amazed at how they can scamper right up the side of the house.  Our little granddog, that we keep a lot of the time gets in a good workout whenever she is staying with us just by shooing the squirrels away from her territory!
