    I've been watching the squirrels in my backyard for years. I see them cram leaves in their mouths and head for the evergreen trees to build their nests. There was a piece of cardboard on my deck that had been out there all winter. I watched squirrels tear off pieces of it and use it for nest building. My deck was the Home Depot for dray building supplies.

    I have four grey squirrels who visit my garden and balcony several times a day. I think they are related. One is definitely a female and I think the others are her mate and 2 offspring. They often visit en masse, but this can lead to high speed chasing and screamed warnings when magpies and crows are around. I have hand fed all of them and two have explored inside my sitting room. They are such characters and brighten up my day watching their antics and seeing them grow.

    I'm pretty ignorant about wildlife. During quarantine, I noticed a squirrel gathering moss in it's jaws from my garden then climbing to the very top of a fifty foot tree. I thought "they must be nesting, i didn't know they did that" then David not only confirmed it but showed me a candid view inside one of the nests.
    Also I live in an urban area, this is commonly seen if you notice patches in your grass or have tall trees nearby. Their agility is something to behold!

    Yes they are cute
    and when I was a child I loved to tame them to eat bread from my hand
    but when I became an adult and had a house
    I hate them because they get into my attic
    That's a real mess.
    Now I chase them off if they get close to the house.
    I still like to watch them from a distance.
    One day I watched 3 of them play.
    They would run out a branch then hop on the end of it
    and use it like a diving board
    the branch would bend down and spring back up
    with one of them on it
    he would ride it to the top of the spring
    and then jump to land on a branch of a different tree about 6 feet away
    ...all of this while 20 feet in the air.
    Nice game and fun to watch.

    Red squirrels thrive in coniferous forests with larch and Norway spruce whereas grey squirrels thrive in mixed forests with oak and hazel. planting champions!We bought a hazel tree and the grey squirrels planted two themselves. Guess which are the better ones?! The biggest threat to red squirrels, is yes, humans for cutting down so many coniferous forests. Luckily red squirrels thrive on the Isle of Wight and North West Scotland! I love grey squirrels as much as red squirrels. They are environmental, tree planting champions extraordinaire! 🐿️🌳🐿️🌲💚

    Idk... I'm not "frightening" to the squirrels I feed in my back yard... they associate me with food + water that's why... Yet I'm the deadliest predator they have. Fear really comes down to intellect. You can't fear something you can't even comprehend. A squirrel can't comprehend the mechanics involved with a gun, for example. Therefore, since I only kill the really big squirrels for eating, they don't see or hear rifle too often. It's rare enough that they forget about it, and when I bring it back out, they look at me like, "OH HEY BUDDY, WHAT IS THAT?" *BOOM!!!!!!!*
    "AHHHH OMG THAT HURTS! WTF~! AHHHHHH MY BODY, AHHH, AHHHH!!" That's pretty much their life
