Many years ago I was privileged to befriend a squirrel and she allowed me to hand feed her. I fed her Brazil nuts and would tap them on the deck railing. She would come down out of the Oak tree and run across the deck railing and take the nut from my fingers. She was so gentle and her little paws were so soft. I now feed squirrels, chipmunks, and birds. I love all wildlife.
That's wonderful! Thank you for sharing this 😊❤️
Brazil nuts are high in selenium, which can be toxic to squirrels. Walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds and unsalted peanuts are the way to go. 😊🐿
@@SquirrelTheater Thanks for the information. I didn’t know that. I only feed dry roasted, unsalted peanuts and sunflower hearts now. I’d love to feed walnuts but I can’t afford them.
So strange to me. Brazil nuts are the only nut my squirrels ignore.
@@keithdrummond1003 That is strange. I feed sunflower hearts and peanut pieces. My squirrels and chipmunks ignore the peanuts and go straight to the sunflower seeds.
Those tails are so fluffy and adorable
Last summer a tailless squirrel showed up with a little bloody nub, we started out leaving treats for “ him “. He and 12 others show up every morning for breakfast now.The tailless squirrel we named “ Nubbs”. I always make sure Nubs gets his peanuts first, he is often shunned by the other squirrels, treated as an outsider. He is a loner, but it seems the other squirrels recognize that he is treated special. Really interesting to see the hierarchy of the group. Thank you for sharing your squirrels with everyone.
Why are these little guys so cute, especially when eating...scratching and wiggling their tales...😄😄
Прекрасный человек.👍
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🤚🏻
Thank you for this informative video! Squirrels' tails are so beautiful, as well as useful!
Thank you for your kind comment 😊❤️
It amazes me how these little cuties use their tail: for protection, to warm against danger, to communicate with other squirrels.
They are truly amazing critters.
And I love mine dearly! 🐿️
And we can recognize squirrels by unique tails!
У них разнообразное питание👍
I have a family of squirrels that feed from my window and live in a row if sycamores behind my house.
One of them is far more confident than the rest, she has really red fur and I call her Jazz, because she is obsessed with Jazz apples.
" Squirrels, generally Have a "thicker Tail," when They get Older; and "fur is more sparce, when They are Young." ~
Thank you so much for sharing them!
Squirrels are truly amazing animals and I enjoy every they do. Those tails do marvelous things. ❤
Indeed, thank you for your comment ❤️
The calming 'hey...' after the little tussle made me laugh
Thank you so much! I watched this based on a link from your other squirrel-tail video. I am so sorry to learn that Smoothie passed away. I must have been following you longer than i thought, because I remember seeing several videos in which she appeared!
That was very interesting and educational. I didn’t know any of that about the purposes their tails serve. Thanks!! 🐿️🐿️❤❤🐿️🐿️
I'm glad it was helpful 😊❤️
Aw, when they show up all soggy from the rain, I want to reach for a towel to dry them off... I don't think that'd go well 😆
Love this chanel, it's informative and so beautifully filmed and edited. Thank you for sharing and for all you do for your squirrel friends.
Thank you very much for your kind words 😊❤️
I love watching your channel, the squirrels are wonderful with the way they look and act, I have 5 squirrels that come to my back door to be fed, but one of them has a damaged tail or maybe it's not deveoped properly, the fur can be seen at the base of the tail but it has not progressed any further up it's tail resulting in the fact that it doesn't have a brush tail, he does come every day and eats well, but I'm keeping an eye on his, my squirrels usually eat nuts but occasionally they will each red berries, blueberries and even tortilla chips, I love seeing them every day, they are a wonder to behold
Hello Everyone! You did an amazing job with this video. You not only told us, but I just loved the "slo mo". Thank you.👍
Thank you for your kind words 😊❤️
Such fascinating little animals. Thank you so much for sharing these videos! Also, the way Righty came right up to the window to look at you after fighting off the other squirrel. It's like he was telling you "Yeah that's right, I AM THE BOSS!" lol
Lol 😄 Yeah, Righty was definitely boasting about his victory. He was a very precious and strong alpha squirrel for a long time, but unfortunately I haven't seen him in 6-7 months and I really miss him, he was very dear to me. 🐿️ Thank you for your lovely comment 😊❤️
Theye all look so sweet =)
Thank you 🐿️❤️
I have a squirrel in my yard that is missing 2/3 of his tail. I call him stumpy. I feel sorry for stumpy. Stumpy’s smart though, he stays on the ground and gets the nuts that fall out when the others grab them from the feeder.
Oh poor squirrel, I'm sorry about that. He is probably a survivor of an attack from a predator, he lost his tail but it saved his life. I'm glad that he can find a way to get some food. 😊🐿️
I also have a regularly visiting squirrel with a portion of tail gone. I call this one 'Shorty' and she/he is the only one who comes right up to me and will take food from my fingers.
die sind wie immer sehr niedlich
Thank you 🐿️❤️

The word squirrel comes from Ancient Greek skiouros, via Latin sciurulus, meaning "shady tail."
Thank you for this information 😊

Thanks friend, appreciate you and your videos ☺💓
Thank you as well for your kind words, I also appreciate very much all your lovely and encouraging comments 😊❤️
Stay warm critters winter is coming
Good advice 😊
I wonder if they'll let you touch their tails eventually? I'm sure it feels really soft!
I have a squirrel called Smoothie who always lets me pet her, and her tail is so soft that I can barely feel it 😊🐿️
When they do the thing where they chase each other up and down trees in the morning... you think that's for fun, or infighting?
I think it can be both, sometimes I see baby squirrels siblings doing that but it seems they are playing, but adults probably do that because they are being chased away.
This the tail that went missing? Because the grey backside was huge?
When did you first start video taping squirrels?
A little bit more than a year ago.
