It's squirrel appreciation day! (lol squirrel with apology)

In his attempt at acquiring some delicious bird-feed for a hearty meal, this squirrel takes more than a few missteps — but the result is some hilarious rodent acrobatics, and a happy ending!

Check out the video!

The squirrels hang upside down to eat from the suet cage -- stretched full out to their tippytoes. It's hilarious.

Every morning, we have 4-6 of them waiting to share the birdseed we throw onto our patio. A couple of them are so used to use they don't even startle when we open the sliding door. Several of them have beautiful tufts of pure white fur on their ears.

I love squirrels! They offer no end of amusement to me! We have tons of them around my apartment complex and they are very bold. I give them nuts when I have them, but often get scolded for attracting "rodents". I think they are adorable though. They are so cute!
