OMG...you taught him to do that lol. I was just going to comment on how polite he was to only walk on the path...I don't know what's more amazing, him using the path on his own or you teaching him (and the others). You are so lucky to have this experience with these adorable squirrels. Although, I am sure it is less about luck and more about the time and patience you put into forming these bonds/relationships....but you're still lucky. There are too many feral cats hanging at my house at all hours of the day and night (I am their primary food source)...even though they are very well fed, some will still go after them for the thrill of it (play = practice). It really seems like you are enriching their lives and they, yours.

That is awesome ☺👍👍👍☺

Amazing. I wondered why it was using the path. Thanks for this. Cheers me up to watch😂

susan ivy, I think a grasshopper taught him that.

This is some relaxing shit to look at. Love that back yard also.

This squirrel would wipe his feet on the doormat before entering

Angela Moulton he’s very respectful.

Right😂

such a smart little fellow

I know. Thats cute

I know right 😄

Neat neat

Its a very proper and polite squirrel lol

500th like

Theyre evolving lol

Sorry for your loss

I'm so sorry, bless your heart well what a lovely kind hearted special man your dad was, he made such a difference to those little creatures lives, what cherished memories for you. I truly am sorry 😳

It shows you what was in your dads heart ❤️ caring for Gods small creatures . That love lives4ever

That's a sweet memory, of the squirrels. I think they'll miss your family too.

So beautiful and sad at the same time.

Its a frickin squirrel.. its not like its a grizzly

👍❤️🇯🇲

The squirrel just wants nuts.

@@jasonlee8033 my dad tamed a wild cat. It was a tuxedo cat. His name is Tux

@@jasonlee8033 it’s still a wild animal. and a lot of people try to hurt them. I think this is beautiful.

Tiny hairy girls getting you into huge hairy situations are your thing, huh?

Glad she’s an X-gf.

Too funny!

I think we dated the same girl

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Not to mention .22s and .177 pellets!!!

uphill both ways

😅

😂😂🤣🤣

I see what you did there lol

Ninja Crumb No, running them over coming out of the driveway is pretty much the best way to start a day. Squirrels are a total nuisance, especially if you have a bird feeder.

@@speakingtruths4215 and you'll have to clean up the mess straight after.

@@speakingtruths4215 But yet your name is butthole pleasures, you probably have brown chocolate all up under your fingernails.

By getting that mornin' nut.

Show her the video lol

I read first and thought why is he dissin his own daughter then I saw your profile pic and name and went ohhhhhhhh ok.

IS THAT WHY YOU KILLED HER, THANOS!?

Throw her off a cliff

is her name gamora LMAOO

Sweet but sad story. Yes, I think animals KNOW us and grieve when they lose us as well.

This story brings tears to my eyes. As much as I hate squirrels with passion because they eat everything I plant including succulents. I still put out water for all the squirrels, ground squirrels, hairs on hot days who roam my yard constantly.

Can appreciate that they can be a pest (though I don't personally have that feeling) but kudos for still helping them out. Realize, they are only following their nature. Have a great day!

Michael Rodriguez HARE, not hair.

DIfreighter watcher I am so sorry about the loss of your Grandmother; God made the beautiful animals that is why the squirrel knows a lot

Jacky Hawkins Took the words right out of my mouth! Precious!💓☘

I've seen bears use stepping stones and of course raccoons and cats in a leisurely way, but this squirrel is just so earnest and eager about it! BB

FUNNY!

Its like it is playing the grass is lava.

I was just about to post the same thing! How cute is that?

@Dario DeNiro how do you know it male, Mr smart ass?

@@cabbagenjam 😂 nice 👍

Cabbagenjam☺☺☺👍👍👍

Dario DeNiro did you just assume its gender

son ant it's got nuts don't it?

That's what I was just thinking! :D I couldn't believe the squirrel always stayed on the stone pathway. :D

Peace To All my squirrels know I'm the grocery delivery person, but they would NEVER let me get that close ! 😃

We have bunnies and squirrels and chipmunks and opposums in our yard ... they don't run away when they see me ... but they don't let me get real close. I wish they would so I could pet them. The animals do like to eat our peaches and blueberries and fresh herbs in our yard. :D

Peace To All that sounds real nice there !! The show on animal planet, or is it Nat geo wild with the vet who treats exotic animals in Miami, she was bit by a possum and had a raging fever of 104+ (wow). Not meaning to rain on your lovely sounding yard, but Also letosporosis (Sp?) With squirrels and rodents. Just be careful. Again, it does sound animal rich 😃.

Grass is hot lava

So adorable. Please tell Smudge I said hello.😊

Lisa Naomi It is RIDICULOUSLY adorable! I'll tell him hello on your behalf 👍

Mr. G. I can only imagine. And thank you!😁

ruth campbell I don't know what to say to that lol. Just keep your eyes open for us whenever you walk by the park 😂 Thanks!

ɮeɲյαɱɱιɲ Perhaps I could try something like that. Thanks 😊

I'm sure he hides peanuts everywhere for him to find during long trips out of town. I can see myself planning a peanut hunt for my wild squirrel in a case like this. I can't wait to meet my future squirrel friend! I have tons of squirrels living in the pecan trees next to my house. I'm going to attempt to make some squirrel friends very soon. I've got to figure out how to safely gain their trust without drawing attention to myself. We have many cats who are infatuated with the squirrels, birds, and lizards.

I've never seen a squirrel mess with grass. Do they do that in your neighborhood?

They will eat the white tender part of a fresh grass stem if you have a certain type(s) of yard grass. They also eat certain types of Bugs too. Watched them do it many times.

Or just a nut trying to get 'a head.'

I’m trying to bust a nut😉

I see what you did there

Lucinda Holland , but sometimes you feel like a nut and sometimes you don't!

I'm trying to get a nut off

ThePipecarrier You should film them, they sound quite fascinating!

Damnit, Canada always sounds so cool!

My childhood.

lol @ pussy

no waay! XD

@@highlightedreply8838 Yes way.😎

hahaha what....

yep

Like Tony Sopranos and his ducks. I am the same with the raccoon I been feeding.

Lot of work for each peanut!

Have you ever watched Chickadees with sunflower seeds? They'll take a single seed and fly ~20 yards away to eat it! Then...fly back, get another, and fly away again! Whod'a thunk there was so much energy stored in a single sunflower seed! :-)

What I don't understand is how he managed to write the sign in Squirrel.

Maybe there are fire ants. Not sure where this is, but my sister in Georgia has them. We keep off her grass! I agree with you. Super cute!

Kristi A. Jones Lol I said the same thing!!!! Haha 💖

It's so funny! We have many "tame" squirrels behind our condo, but nothing in this league.

Kristi A. Jones Haha yes they are so awesome. I have raised a couple babies and they are so smart, loving and crazy fun! I have also taught wild ones to come up to me in the backyard or parks, and I even got one to come inside the house to get peanuts lol! That was at my parents house when I was younger...was very cool. I have a townhouse now with no big trees :( just have a tiny one in front where I leave a bowl of water and throw out cheerios, etc...and there's a squirrel that comes from somewhere!!!! Lol

I have several raccoon families behind our condo every year. There are 3 adult females who bring their babies to me every year to eat cat food. The current batch is so sweet and the babies crawl all over my legs trying to get into the bowl. My neighbor has a couple squirrels she feeds so often that they will sit directly next to her while she fills the feeders. You're right....animals are SO cool. People really miss out if they don't have a pet or enjoy animals in their lifetime.

Kristi A. Jones Aww that's so sweet! I wish everyone was so kind to animals like us...but unfortunately there's SO much evil out there and torture and I sign petitions every freakin day fighting against these psychos! This is all over the world but I think China is one of the worst!!! 😡

DrKate L. LOL!!!!! I hope you replied “YESSSS!!!!”

DrKate L. I would have asked, and said to him "and so WTF if I am who the hell are you Mr f-king irrelevant? Quit acting like a disrespectful lil snob or I'm calling campus security.".

Hahaha

DrKate L. ya nice story lady......😒 .....isnt it pass old people bed time already.......

@@sidthevar2679 Wow! Does it feel good to be mean to another person? You'll be old too and I hope someone makes fun of you and see how it feels, then you'll shit in your pants daily! Lol. At least she's a Doctor! What are you? You just sit in front of your computer being an ignorant prick to others? You think you're being funny and you think it's cool to be cruel to others but all it does is make you look like a fool. And she's not even old!! People can live to be over 90 years old, so she's far from old! Lol

TiticatFollies It's probably because it's easier to walk over than the higher grass. Which may also be wet with cold dew. But still really funny and adorable.

TiticatFollies, pretty much ALL wildlife acts like electricity...they follow the path of least resistance! If you pulled out those stones and laid a tree trunk there, I GUARANTEE the squirrel would run along the tree trunk.

They really do make my day - its hard to be in a bad mood when you start with squirrels and birds! BB

I love that they stay on the stepping Stones.

*Rachel Cooper:* Yes, I've done that too - free entertainment!! : D

*RON JANISCH:* My squirrels attack each other and actually growl, to be the first one to get to the food I put out. There's one guy that's extremely aggressive and if I give him whatever it is I throw out, he picks that up, and if I throw another piece out for another squirrel, he growls and fights the other one off so he can have both pieces! He's also the one that comes right up on the top step and takes the treat right out of my hand! He's cute, but he's also a greedy little hog!! ; p

Rachel Cooper you could take a later, go up the tree until you find a good spot to stack, & rest the cobs on, better yet leave a husk leaf on there, tie it in a loop big enough to fit around 1 of there little shoulders so 1 can carry it up easy, and if they have to they can chew through the little loop.

It's probably funny to see them do that and cute at the same time!

One of the somewhat sad things about having squirrel friends is they usually aren't around a long time. Through the years I've had quite a few Squirrel pals. I had one little gal who would come inside if I left the door open and beg for a pecan. I had another who would sit right beside me on the patio table with absolutely no fear of me at all. She would actually turn her back to me while she scanned for Hawks and Cats. These were totally wild squirrels mind you that I eventually made friends with. It takes time, treats, and a lot of sweet talking but you can gain their trust. They are actually quite intelligent and have their own little unique Squirrel personalities. When they start getting a little old they loose that sharp alert edge and quick reflex to a threat. Being wild animals they are subject to disease and constant predation. It's just natures way. One odd thing I noticed is the Squirrels will chew on various things around my neighbors houses but absolutely nothing of mine. I suppose I have unknowingly stuck a deal with the Squirrels to leave my stuff alone if I give them their food bribes. I have a picture of me when I was a toddler handing a Squirrel a pecan. I think it's so cool that the Squirrels run towards me instead of away when I come home.

I have four or five squirrels I feed daily I feed them bread and peanuts they love light bread

I would love to use you for food if y'all know what I mean

It's all about the peanut bond.

Taylor D. At least it's very respectful and not walking in the grass 😂😂😂

Holyflame lol!!! I know right. 😂

It's a girl nothing new here.

When you say "making false charges" do you mean they are acting like they are going to attack, or did they report you to the police and are trying to tarnish your reputation with preposterous allegations?

A false charge is something a lot of animals do, from mice to elephants. Actual attacks carry risk, so most animals will pretend to attack by charging at you, hoping to scare you. If you stand your ground and refuse to move, they'll stop, back up, and then charge again, each time stopping before they actually get to you. Squirrels think it makes them look fierce, which is funny and charming.

Did they throw Pine Cones at your car ?

@@shannonwhitaker9630 😂

Wow that sounds so nice...

Great Story - good luck on book!

That is so sweet! You are like Sleeping Beauty! Bless you for being so kind. They love you!

Do a video of it! I would like to see it!!

Awe so lovely 🌸❤

I love that you trained your husband to do it too! Success!

Maybe ..... That's a skunk 🤔

I will get a pic of her and post it here.

@@Ask8613 😂😂

What? No, that was not wrong. You being misunderstood by your paps doesn't mean it's wrong. That's adorable as hell.

@@DelphineTheWorstBladeEver Thank you 🙂

Interesting comments, I have noticed like in this case one squirrel of a generation will stand out as a leader or more adventurous and open to a closer relationship with a human. If they are tricked or get hurt by the relationship then it is a setback but after several successful generations where closer involvement with humans pays off they all start to draw closer. BB

It's your fault for not training her correctly.

But was she driving a squirrel?

Thank you! BB
