I gave my squirrels macadamia nuts and they loved them so much they would all come and line up and tap on the window! love your videos
😊 🐿️ 🥜
😅😅😅😅
My God...I got so caught up in the video I realized I was holding my breath a few times and sitting really still so I wouldn't scare the squirrels....LOL!
I'll be at your window if you're giving out macadamia nuts...😂
I love how they greet Kiara before helping themselves, so polite!
Me too!
@@danis.9130 😁
I was going to say that same thing. And please leave some chocolate ones for us!❤
If those were offered in Hawaii, I wonder how many would refuse them 😄
They are extremely lucky squirrels to have you provide them with feasts and you are so privileged to have earned their trust through your kindness
Sometimes food tastes better after it has been rolled on the ground - Cutie
😄
The way she throws the nut away at 1:12 made me laugh too. "What is that? Throw it away quickly before it explodes" 😂
Another awesome video with your squirrels. I love how they greet Kiara. It was fun watching their reactions to the new Macadamia nuts. Keep up the amazing videos, they are so fun to watch. Have a blessed rest of the week.
Thank you very much for your kind words, have a blessed rest of the week as well 😊❤️🙏
Omg this had me laughing so hard!! They are like, who the heck changed the menu?!!...Bring the old nuts back!!! 🤣🤣🤣
😄
Ahahaaa! Cutie said nope, ptooie. 😂 Earl, the youngster, and Bram seemed to love the unshelled m-nuts. And cute Kiara inspecting the m- nuts in the beginning, hehe. I love your experiment! 💗
Wow, how quickly the likes go up even while watching! It's so lovely to see how other people love these videos. The squirrels are just too funny! Very suspicious of the ;academia at first. Thank you - it is pure joy watching your videos. xxx
Cutie doesn’t know what she’s missing! It’s nice you have Kiara for QC.
Dear Natalie! Thank you very much for waiting for those sweet little ones with such love and delicacy! And how you share these moments with us! I wish you a Merry Christmas! Blessed holidays, peace, tranquility, quiet days! 🎄🧚♀️❤️ 🐈⬛🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐦🐦🐦🐦 Hugs to you and Kiara❤️
Thank you very much for your kind words and for all your lovely comments. Merry Christmas and blessed holidays to you too 😊❤️🙏🎄
Omgoodnesssss! So excited that two of mine Baby and Stripe, just ate pecans of of my hand and twice held on to me with precious paws...I am thrilled! Had to come tell you honey! Bought everything to make your calcium treats yesterday..💙🌎
Baby just came back and this time he swooped his tale up and over his face, to get it out out my fingers...so dang cute...And fyi have absolutely no idea between male or female..lol❤
They all look so big & strong! You must have the healthiest, happiest squirrels on the East Coast 🐿🐿🐿
At first, I thought the youngster might be the only taker because the others are older & have just become set in their tastes with more familiar nuts. But then along came Bram & some of the other regulars & in they tuck 🤷🏼 I guess macadamia nuts must just be a love/hate food for squirrels 🥜🐿
Thanks for sharing ❤ I hope all is well on your side of the window in the run up to Christmas🎄
It's very interesting to see how varied the squirrels are with their preferences. For some reason, it seems unusual that one squirrel would like something and another wouldn't, but it's clearly the case. I happen to agree with Earl. Macadamia nuts are pretty good.
So many coming to stock up, but 2-3 said, "Get a grip Mom- I say 'nay-nay' to this caviar weirdness". Such fun to watch.
Oh, these squirrels are just too adorable! And your kitty is so caring towards them. I don't think the squirrels will manage to crack the macadamia nuts, even though they have very powerful lower jaw muscles. They seem to eagerly take the shelled nuts though. Thank you for taking care of these little fluffballs!
I just love this! I bought a bag of macadamia nuts for our little friends a couple of weeks ago... they took them and ran off... I never actually saw them eating one. 😆
too cute :))
Kiara is just supervising, such a beautiful good girl, all the squirrels are happy, probably calling you the nut lady, lol lol, they are so adorable to watch, thank you, can see the squirrels going nuts for r
the nuts.
Thank you, so adorable🐿️🌰🐿️🌰 🐿️🌰.
Thank you very much 😊❤️
Love you all❤.. You always make my evenings better.. Thank you very much 😘🤗.. Have a blessed life🫶🙏🕊️
I'm very glad, thank you 😊❤️
I was hoping to see at least one try to crack a shelled macadamia nut.
I wonder how long it takes for them to open a macadamia nut. 🌰🐿
Chisel teeth really needed,
as they're rock hard....
I also hope none of them return singing "All I want for Christmas, is my two front teeth..." 🤪
🎄Happy Holidays to all !
L❤ve from Norway 🇧🇻
Kiara is so sweet, hanging back so as to not make the squirrels nervous. I've noticed with my squirrel friends that some are picky eaters. Have a blessed day. :)
Hah, the moment you threw a handful of nuts on the ground, there was a _squeak_ from one of the local birds.
"Hey, everybody! Dinner is served!"
Your videos always makes me smile 😊🎄 Merry christmas to you, Kiara and the squirrels!
I'm very glad and thank you, Merry Christmas to you too 😊❤️
@@Squirrels_at_the_window merry Christmas. Thanks for the vids.
Thank you @@Squirrels_at_the_window
I have a baby squirrel that comes to my window that wouldn't touch the macadamia nuts because he wasn't familiar with them yet. They only get them as a special treat around Christmas. Anyway I put a little almond butter on it knowing he would accidently take a bite. I was right and he loves them ever since. As much as my little ones trust me I am glad they have some fear for the unknown. It helps keep them safe!
MERRRY CHRISTMASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
We love watching your videos! Merry Christmas!
Thank you very much for your kind words and generous gift. Merry Christmas 😊❤️🎄
Oooo!!! BIG ones!
I absolutely loved this video. Cutie was not having it, and Ricos face was priceless. I had a good laugh and earl liked them, and ellie was a no. The youngster was a no, thank you for the video ❤
I'm very glad 😊❤️
This is how mom’s feel when they try a new recipe on the family lol. It was fun to watch. Thank you!
😄 I'm very glad you enjoyed it ❤️
I absolutely love how some of the squirrels hold their little hands together in front of them while checking somerthing out like the Macadamia nuts. It melts my heart everytime!! I always love your videos!!♥️♥️♥️♥️
I'm very glad, thank you 😊❤️
Same. It does something to my soul. So flipping adorable.
@@5dorkycastillos 😊
Happy Xmas everyone... love these little critters
Cutie is spoiled eating walnuts 😜
So funny how they have their nut preferences! Mine will pick the premium nuts over the peanuts. 😂
Awesome, you have so many. Watching you from the UK.
If I were a squirrel Natalie I would climb up to that window so fast! Macadamia nuts are my favorite…I just made some Macadamia nut chocolate chip cookies. Some of the squirrels really seemed to like them. I really appreciate you taking care of those babies and sharing them with us. I wish you and yours a Very Merry and Blessed Christmas. ❤️🙏😍🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻💚
Thank you, a very Merry and Blessed Christmas to you too 😊❤️🙏🎄
They are too adorable,I love how you've named them all :)
Happy holidays to you and all your little friends! ❤
Thank you very much, happy holidays to you too 😊❤️
Sir Earl of the Nuthouse really likes the macadamias. 😆 thought I’d have a little fun with the name! 😂
😄
Just wanted to say I'm a huge fan of your channel! You inspired me to start befriending the squirrels in my area, and I've always been an avid druid in nature ^_^ My squirrels LOVE pistachios and sometimes chase eachother away to hog them all 😅😂
I'm very glad to know that 😊❤️
Your sweet voice match so well with your kindness towards these precious angels 🥰 Merry Christmas to you and Kiara 😘
Thank you, Merry Christmas to you too 😊❤️🎄
SO NICE OF YOU TO GIVE THEM THIER REGULAR NUTS SINCE MOST DIDN'T LIKE THE MACADAMIA NUTS!
I also feed the squirrels. I have little red squirrels. They are nuts over what I feed them. Keep up the good work. Love of nature is a beautiful thing. Happy Christmas to you and your kids in fur pajamas.
Thank you, Happy Christmas to you too 😊❤️🎄
I tried to give the local squirrels, a variety of nuts. They didn't like the macadamia nuts or the chestnuts very much. But they they all loved the coconuts
Beautiful video as always 🥰🐿️❤️
Thank you 😊❤️
Ellie: What strange nuts.....Where's the peanut butter?
😄
i absolutely love these videos! at my college i always watch the squirrels outside between classes and when i'm back home i love to watch these:D i was wondering how you tell the difference between the squirrels, is it personality, size, etc?
Telling squirrels apart is like telling identical twins apart. The more time I spend with them the more I notice unique features and behaviors. I have a video about it if you would like to learn more about how I tell my squirrels apart: th-cam.com/video/dRPqzajs7WE/w-d-xo.html
@@Squirrels_at_the_window awesome thanks!
I fed these along with walnuts and almonds to my two fox squirrel buddies. They ate them for the first few days and then never again.
Was Rico's mouth watering?😊 It's okay to introduce new things to your squirrel family 🤗👍
So, not a huge hit? Cute watching them make up their minds!
How do the squirrels react to your cat being in the room ... I can Kiera in the window's reflection 🪞
I haven't seen any of your darlings eating the macadamias, just taking off with them. Most likely they are hiding them in hopes you will put out the good stuff. The little grey squirrel we had use to hide what he didn't want. One night I heard my husband using expletives and I turned on the light as he took a piece of broccoli out from under his pillow. Well, we knew who put that there.😖 Any way HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and yours and all your fur-babies!! Thank you for making my day a better one!
Thank you, Happy New Year to you too 😊❤️
I’ve tried a few nuts as well. Mine love walnuts, pecans, almonds and peanuts but I got a huge no from them when I offered chestnuts. They didn’t care for pistachios or cashews either. Yesterday I gave my tamest little girl Snoot a Brazil nut and she was in heaven. She sat there eating it making little smacky num num noises as I chatted with her. Afterwards I wanted to kick myself for forgetting to take my phone out. Maybe I’ll be lucky enough she might come around for another one today.
lovely...those macadamia nuts look amazing! Yum I would have eaten them my favorite nuts. I have been feeding my squirrel walnuts in his tree lately as well..but I think the birds are also taking them...since I have some birds near my window as well.
Looks like the jury is still out on the Christmas special nuts. Mine always give me a hard time when I offer something new. Glad to see a few were willing to try.
Wishing you and your fur babies a happy Christmas and blessed New Year
Thank you, happy Christmas and a blessed New Year to you too 😊❤️🙏
I love your channel!! Thank you 🙏!
I'm very glad 😊❤️
Squirrel: It's too good to be true! I must be dead and this is heaven!
One of the squirrels can be named Bobbin' and another Weavin' 😅😅😅
Hahaha. Beggars can’t be choosers 😂. Picky squirrels!
Thanks!
Thank you very much for your kind gift 😊❤️
Macadamias are really expensive. Nuts are, in general, but so is everything. I feed squirrels regular bagged roasted peanuts and even they are about $5/lb
Your cat is reflecting in the window
Love!
Fascinating! The squirrels at my window will not eat macademias. They will pick right through them for the pecans,
Oh wow, I didn't expect them to be so picky 😮. And they ignored the ones with shells
Köszönjük!
Thank you very much for your kind gift 😊❤️
I love Macadamia, so delicious!
Be careful their shell is the most durable in the world, I'm not sure that squirrels will crack it.
I have a feeling the squirrels will like macadamia nuts as soon as they're not 'new', maybe if you mix them in with the more familiar varieties 😊🐿
😊❤😅
Kiara was thinking “this is uneatable rubbish.”
😄
Merry Christmas to you. I cannot even tell you how much I enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, Merry Christmas to you too 😊❤️🎄
🎄Buon Natale, Natalie e dolci scoiattolini! 💞🎅 Happy Festive Season 😙
Thank you, Happy Festive Season to you too 😊❤️🎄
Earl gave them a whirl.
I liked the look that ellie gave when she disliked the macadamia nuts. What's this😮
lol Cutie said hell no to the macadamia nut. 😂
😄
I tried feeding the local squirrels macadamias, too, with mixed results. I'm sticking with walnuts.
My absolute favorite nuts. Chocolate covered nuts imported from Australia used to be a regular at Christmas here in Aotearoa New Zealand but, for some reason, l haven't seen them for a few years. Miss them geaps. Can't say l blame the squirrels for choosing the already shelled ones as the shells on macadamias are a nightmare.
They probably said to each other. Just grab one making her think you liked it. Then just go around the corner and throw it away. She will never know the difference. 😄
so cute ✨
Lovely
This is such a coincidence. I bought some macadamia nuts from the ABC store in Vegas last night. 😮😅
Cutie still stocking up. It is funny but Macadamia nuts are grwon in Hawaii. I do not think Hawaii has squirrels
all the best be safe, healthy every day❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
😂cute.. I replied to the email which you sent in September. So sorry for the late reply.. I didn't receive it in my inbox.
Have a beautiful 2024 .. Happy holidays ❤
Thank you, Happy Holidays to you too 😊❤️ I received your reply and I will post your photos next week.
They can really benefit from the extra oil in the macadamia nuts.
They might be just extra cautious around something new.
All I can say is I hope you like macadamia nuts.
🤣😂❤️🐿
😄 I do.
🥰🥰🥰
Try peanut butter and jam or jelly or a big Christmas cherry the kind that come in a bottle. They say cherries are the most loved fruits of small rodents .
Macadamias are native to Eastern Australia, of course, although grown in other countries now. So, as has been said, not a nut they usually encounter. Soon used to them.
I love these videos 😍💖🌷🌟🙏🏻...😊
I'm very glad, thank you 😊❤️
Just a note... Macadamia nut shells are (probably) the hardest known..... I pounded on one with a hammer ans ended up with a crater in concrete.... shell hadn't cracked yet... .
The squirrels in my hood LOVE macadamians. Im shocked
Nice experiment! 👏👍
I'm not sure if they can really smell through the Macadamia nut shell ? It's very dense and hard (plus, the nut itself is not so fragrant compared to walnuts for instance)
I hope that those who took the ones in shells won't have a hard time cracking them up 😅🤞
Hi Natalie, I had one in the garden yesterday and she pinched one of the figs off the tree, (surprised they're still on the tree to be honest) but she sat on the trellis and munched on it, not the trellis the fig. TFS, GB :)
OMG, The other day I was wondering if they ever had Macadamia Nuts!. Cutie was a no, but Youngster loved them, and influenced others.
It’s interesting to see how the squirrels are suspicious of a new kind of nut, even when they are offered by their trusted nut lady! I would think the youngsters would not have had enough time to get set in their ways and would be willing to try them. I think my squirrels would eat them - they demolish anything that is put on the platforms, even old bits of bird suet cakes and worse-for-wear (rainy weather) seed cylinders! They are so cute! Two saw me come out of my front door and scrambled down their tree so they could get to my backyard faster, even though i didn’t have nuts with me at the time! It’s hard to keep up with their appetites!
They seem to like peanut in shell most. Nothing better than peanuts!
Peanuts are ok, but walnuts and pecans are better. The best is to feed them a mix of nuts.
