Not as friendly as the chipmunks we see on our walks but we still enjoy watching the squirrels and listening to them chatter away. We have plenty of them visiting the backyard but usually they're grey or black so the reds and browns of those in the woods are a real treat.

I love sitting out on the patio with a coffee a good book and my camera during the summer and was as thrilled as a kid in a candy store when this little guy decided to befriend me. They are not the best of photos but considering I was taking them and trying not to frighten my new found friend I don't think they turned out too bad at all. Blackie came around every weekend for about a month and then disappeared....sadly, he did not put in an appearance in 2008.
