    So lovely to find a new treat that they all like! About 2 minutes into the video I noticed that when Pierce was eating, his ear was “wiggling”. After that I was watching all their ears but it only seemed to be Pierce haha. (Now I’m going to be watching his ears in future videos too!)

    Really interesting to see the difference between how keen they are on the hickory nuts & how unenthusiastic most of them seemed to be with the macadamia nuts you offered them a short while ago. There’s no doubt which one is favourite!
    Lovely to see Pierce looking so well & he & George being so close to each other & everything remaining peaceful. Plus Hodary & Cutie are super sweet & beautiful as always (not to mention so gentle & tender when they’re holding your hand!) 😍

    I love squirrels so these videos are great. I live in the UK and have a woodland on a hillside that starts at the end of my garden and is full of squirrels every year. I have a pear tree in my garden and this year, out of hundreds of potential pears, I ended up with literally ONE! Guess who ate the rest. 😂

    I always collect nuts and berries on my walks. I filled my whole forage pouch with hickory nuts. It’s something we don’t have around the neighborhood. First time I gave them to momma she looked back at me in approval, then wouldn’t leave my side till she ate four more 😂 I took the hint and went to the next tree the next day. Not sure if they were that good, or just something she can’t get on her own. Was funny, she’s never reacted that way. It definitely made me smile

Maybe you could merchandise something like that: clip on little fake-fur squirrels. Little, little ones. A few inches tall.

    that's interesting that they sell hickory nuts on Amazon....I don't have a tree in my yard, but down the street there are hickory trees, and I bring back a handful or so at a time for "my" squirrels 😁....I had done some research, b/c when I'd see squirrels burying nuts it seemed so random, and I wondered how they'd ever find them again....apparently they have a highly advanced "map" of the territory, so to speak!? when they bury them it isn't random at all, and they usually bury the same varieties in groups (walnuts, hickory nuts, etc.)....they also shake the shells, and turn them around and around, to make sure they're solid, with no cracks or holes in them (otherwise the nuts would go bad)....fascinating stuff!!!
