Backyard visitor.

We had a furry visitor at the bird feeders yesterday.  This young squirrel decided the suet block with nuts and seeds looked like a great breakfast buffet.  It must have realized the camera wasn’t a threat because it stayed there eating even after I called to it several times.  It darted looks at me a if to say “Wait, just one more bite”, then finally decided to leave when I moved closer to the porch railing.

Squirrel running down pole. Rather impressive.

Maybe if I walk on two legs they won't notice me.  (This is not the squirrel you are looking for)

The birds were happy to see it leave, especially the Scrub Jay.
