AAAH! IT'S THE INVASION OF THE PEANUT BUTTER SNATCHERS!

I woke up this morning and as usual, made my coffee before starting my day.  I pulled the curtains back on my patio door and lo and behold, who was all waiting out there? Those cheeky squirrels! Not one, or two or even three but FIVE of them waiting for me to give them some peanut butter with toast.

Usually they come one at a time.  I really wished I could have captured them all at once to show you guys but they never really stayed still long enough for me to do so. By the time I ran to grab my camera - they all scattered! It was a great chance however, for me to try out my new Canon camera - capturing them in motion.

In the beginning, I was only able to capture at most, three of them at one time - through the patio door, so these did not make for the greatest pictures...

Well, I wasn't too happy the other day when I caught this cheeky squirrel chewing up my lawn chair.  By the time I realized what he was doing it was too late.  He already ripped it up.  I thought after he had seen me at the patio door - he would have taken off.  No such luck.  At least I got it on camera! Lol.








CHEEKY SQUIRREL DEVOURS PEANUT BUTTER

So while having lunch with a co-worker the other day, we came across 'another' cheeky squirrel standing so close to us and just staring at us.  He wouldn't move for anything.  Then we realized it was the peanut butter packets we were eating out of.  He smelled the peanut butter, lol.  I guess it was the wrong thing to eat around a bunch of squirrels!

You know what's cooler than the pictures of him eating it?  It's me capturing it on video. I was only able to capture it for a few seconds - but that was good enough.

He licked that thing clean before throwing it away, lol. Slob!

Peanut butter packet
It never ceases to amaze me how dexterous their little paws are. The way he held on to that peanut butter packet and licked it clean looked similar to how, well, I would do it!

The majority of the squirrels around here at work seem to be rather 'friendly' and of course, cheeky.  I hope to capture more of their antics when time and weather permits.  For now, I was just happy to capture this moment with one of them.


CHEEKY SQUIRRELS AND THE HEATWAVE

OMG.  Talk about heatwave!  Fall officially arrives on the 22nd of September, but you'd think summer had just begun with the heatwave we've been experiencing in the past few days.  Even my cheeky squirrels are trying to cope with the temps... at least one of them anyways.

By the end of the week, temps will drop like a stone, but in the meantime, this cheeky squirrel did what he had to do to keep cool.

Talk about being cheeky.  He seen me taking shots of him and instead of running away.... he just laid there.  So cheeky.  As usual, while this one is distracting me, the other one is up to no good... getting into my flower pot. That's a first!












Wished I could have joined him but I had to get to work!  As for his partner in crime...












Have a good day!


INVASION OF THE CHEEKY SQUIRRELS

So I was taking a few shots of the neighbour's cat... again, because this time it was on my fence and not on theirs when I happened to snap that cheeky squirrel going by - talk about perfect timing! I am a bit fascinated with this cat, and cats in general since I don't have one of my own.

I assume this is how they act - laying around anywhere they please.  This one, however, seems to love hanging around our place.  He's always under my car, on my door step or as you can see now - on my fence, lol.


He also doesn't seem to give 'two shits' about me taking pics of him, since he looked at me then turned away. I'm not sure if it's a him though.  I will have to find out from my neighbour... and it's name.







Anyways, before snapping these pics, I was already taking pics through my screen door of the cat.  It wasn't until later, when going through them that I noticed that cheeky squirrel in the background...


CHEEKY SQUIRREL, NEIGHBOUR'S CAT...

The cheeky squirrel I wrote about in my previous post I guess isn't the only one around this yard that's cheeky or finding this fence 'convenient'...














I thought he was looking down at something... but that's how he slept for the next hour and a half, lol.


CHEEKY SQUIRREL (MY VIDEOS)

All my life I had no idea squirrels could be so 'cheeky' especially when it comes to eating bird seeds.  I always thought they were afraid of humans if we got too close.  Apparently not when it comes to raiding the bird feeder.  They love bird seeds! Who knew.

I tried to scare him away twice, but ... no such luck, the cheeky bastard. My love bird wasn't too thrilled either. Lol.

Check out the video below when you can.
