Diggin' In

I guess this is the wildlife version of dumpster diving!  This squirrel was so absorbed in what it was doing, it really didn't care what I was doing.  This photo was taken at Ken Thompson Park on City Island in Sarasota.  It's popular with animals and humans alike.

Oh I would love to CHASE that squirrel!

I have way too many of these little guys in my back yard! Yesterday one tried really hard to figure out how to get into my squirrel proof feeder, but the feeder did its job and he had to settle for the seeds on the ground.

I suspect it found something. Wildlife is very good at finding food.

That's funny! If that's a recyle bin he may be looking for a while!

The squirrels I've seen around here would never let someone get that close. Maybe your squirrels are hungrier! ;-)

Cute shot!
