It is time for another weekend experience featuring baby squirrels on #squirrelsunday
The baby squirrels are old enough to leave the nest and are quite tame for now.
You can get quite close to them for photos and sometimes you can even pet them. But watch out their parents will fly down the tree to bite you.
This guy was still hanging around its parents while trying to get used to the new world.
After a while it scrambled up the tree with its siblings. Safety in numbers after seeing strange humans walking around at the base of the tree.
Mom is trying to distance herself from the babies as they are supposed to be getting used to surviving on their own now.
These two don't want to leave the nest just yet. In a couple days or so they will have to become independent.
Here is an older baby squirrel that is doing poorly at surviving.
Poor thing doesn't quite know how to scratch the ticks out of its ears yet. Perhaps an older squirrel will help him figure this skill out. Darn ticks are nasty and all need to be eliminated.
That's all for now, thanks for looking.
Cute baby squirrel, they are too cute I want to pet one 🤩✨
Careful they bite, I witnessed this happen to a friend lol.
Such cuties. And yeah, had never seen that huge of a infestation in a squirrel's ear; that can't be pleasant for sure!
I need a tick spray gun that fires from a distance to hit that guy.
That and given how lightning fast they are... very good aim too! :))
Load up a supersoaker with tick medication lol.
Hahahaha that might do the trick!
The worst creatures ever invented.
I haven't seen a squirrel personally. They are so adorable 🥺
What cute little ones! 🥰
Nice and curious right when they leave the nest.

What beautiful pictures! I love squirrels😍
The babies are in perfect condition with a fresh new coat of hair. I hope these ones can dodge the ticks.
What camera are you using for taking this? Nice zoom shots.
I use a really old olympus e510 with a zukio zoom lens. It works great in good light but really bad in low light.
