The Squirrels are Getting More Sophisticated ( humorous) 8 shots

I had noticed that the squirrels were showing signs of sophistication that I had not seen earlier. I have been taking photos to see if they are in fact adapting to our environment in ways I had never anticipated. It all started this past Winter.

The original thread was started on POTN where/when feedback and comments from members influenced me to add a few more images to the post. For anyone interested the original post. it can be found here at:

If you see the squirrel again tell him from me that he is welcome to join the www.cafecanon.com - where a lot of Canon-owners meet. I think he will be the first squirrel-member. Well. I guess you are welcome to :-))

Ok, so now we know about the squirrels, but I also understand that the rabbits are getting just as clever, have you been able to capture and photos of the rabbits in action,. Some of my neighbors have seen they have seen them harvest a complete flower and vegtable garden in a couple of hours!!
