A community portal about Squirrels with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Squirrel is the common name for rodents of the family Sciuridae. In everyday speech in the English -speaking world, it usually refers to members of the genera Sciurus and Tamiasciurus. These typical members of the family are tree squirrels with large bushy tails, and are indigenous to Europe, Asia and the Americas. Similar genera are found in Africa. However, the Sciuridae also include flying squirrels, and ground squirrels such as the chipmunks, prairie dogs, and woodchucks. The unrelated family Anomaluridae also have "squirrel" in their common name, though they are usually referred to as "scaly-tailed flying squirrels". The word squirrel comes from the Old French esqurial, which itself comes from the Vulgar Latin word scuriolus. The pronunciation of this animal's name varies. The British way uses a short "i". The American pronunciation can rhyme either with "curl" or with "Merril", varying regionally.

Hello, I was drinking my morning cup of coffee and was remembering the pictures that I took of one crazy looking Squirrel. A Ukraine Squirrel. Now in America you have Squirrels, but they do not have these ears. This is one wild looking Squirrel. Just thought I would share this with you. Don't you wish that you had a Squirrel like this? Kyle comments always welcome. Read Full Story
I miss having the windows open while I work, so Mr. Michigander and I decided that if the ventilation pipe were moved, it might deter Tony Peanut from climbing up to the double windows. Then we could put back the screens and once again enjoy the summertime sounds and smells of our wooded backyard. Last week, the heating and air conditioning men came out and spent most of the day cutting and removing siding, knocking out holes, disassembling, refitting and then reassembling the ventilation...

This one time at bible camp. A camp counselor killed a squirrel, skins it and roasts it in front of all the kids. I have been to summer camp before and killing wildlife was never one of the planned activities.

On Sunday, I decided to tag along on a two-day business trip with Mr. Michigander. As we drove to the job site two states away, both of us wondered how Tony Peanut would react to our absence. It was the first time in months that both of us would be away from home at the same time for more than a day, so we really didn't know what to expect. Would severe peanut withdrawal set in? Would Tony's dreaded other alter ego Squirrelly Brain be unleashed upon our empty house and allow no window screen... Read Full Story
Since Mr. Michigander has been on the road a lot lately, I've set up office at the dining room table (actually two dining rooms tables pushed end-to-end to create a single long one, as we like to entertain). From here, I can see the yard, the deck and the hummers that visit the feeder directly over the double dining room windows--and Tony Peanut. From his usual spot on the deck rail, Tony can see me too. It's been a busy week, and peanut handouts have been more sporadic than usual. I tend to... Read Full Story
