Wow. Thanks for the kind words and appreciation for the art. I have come to really enjoy the squirrels ever since i was able to convince the one to come eat out of my hand. You can see it in one of those links up there if you want to check out that post.
I doubt they would come chill in a Shmoopy if i made one. We have a few aggressive birds that permit the squirrels to come for a while but they will let the squirrels know when they've worn out their welcome. hahaha
Also, i thought you might like checking this out...
Thanks for stopping by!
I have seen squirrels during the spring but before I can even think about getting close to them they flee away so quickly! Someday I'll pet one...someday! And it will not involve this "SAW" level of a maze hahaha! Thanks for the video! Fantastic Guss was my favorite. What a derp! This channel is golden!
Yeah, i laughed my ass off the first time i saw that. There was a part two i think as well. Yes, if you have some peanuts in the shell then you can throw them out towards the little dudes. Eventually, they will associate you with the peanuts and you can throw it closer and closer until eventually you can make them come and get it. But, you have to be very still and patient. That's how i got my buddy to come over. It took weeks. But, at one point he/she would come get one out of my hand... take two steps away and then lay on it's stomach looking at me while it munched down. hahaha It was super cool.
Yes it is called Backyard Maze 2.0 and I automatically watched it. Now I am in a wormhole in this guy's channel. He has some amazing work! He is a lesser chaotic version of Michael Reevers.
I am going to try that when spring comes around. I mostly see them in Gorky Park, which is both a public park and houses a lot of squirrels. I think it will be harder since there is always a crowd there. But if I do get one and it lays on its stomach and looks at me, I'll call it a win haha!
Hahaha... yes, looks like i'm going to have to check out more of that dude's content. Park squirrels are usually less afraid of people than usual. So, perhaps you can get some winning in soon! Cheers =)
