We had a wonderful day today watching squirrels at the Botanic Gardens. The desire to go there had been accomplished.I never thought that it is just a walking distance from where we are. There are different plant species there including organic vegetables. We also saw some tropical plants like banana trees.But the most amazing thing is to see squirrels hoping for food.We brought peanuts and fed th

I hope that this squirrel isn't Rocky, the flying squirrel, because this guy has a problem. I would hate to think that Rocky is an alcoholic. This squirrel has had way to much to drink and it's only the middle of the day yet.Young Rocky's video was all over the Internet about a year ago, but it was only viewed by about 3 million folks. That leaves several billion who haven't seen it, so I don't fe
When we were at the ranch a couple weeks ago, I'd get up early in the morning to see what animals were stirring. Just back of the house, and over the hill, this handsome skunk was browsing for food, eating much the same as a bear. Digging for roots, ants, and other bugs, he worked hard for his breakfast.Skunks are really peaceful little animals, and rarely bother you unless they've been torment

I don't know who created this image, I found it during a google image search for something totally unrealted a very long time ago and just stumbled upon it while looking for a document I think I forgot to save - but that's another story.

Japanese Squirrel, originally uploaded by jonallen01966.We went to the Inokashira park at the weekend. Most of the park is given over to a small zoo. There is a squirrel enclosure where hundreds of these cute little creatures are free to run around. There were record high temperatures and it was just too hot for this one!

Just in time for summer, author Melanie Watt brings us Scaredy Squirrel at the Beach.
As we've come to expect, there is something new that Scaredy wants to try--namely enjoying the beach--but he's a bit scared. He wants to enjoy the sand and sun, but there are some things that he plans to avoid at all costs. In typical Scaredy fashion, something happens that "was not part of the plan," and we

Why we care to know how squirrels communicate is anyone's guess, but it seems that this research is so important that a robot squirrel is being employed to live amongst the regular squirrel population. In fact, "Rocky" here (named after the cartoon character) is one of a growing legion of robo-creatures designed to study animals in their natural habitat.
Rocky is controlled using a basic computer program and it comes equipped with tiny speakers that play back animal sounds so as not to arouse suspicion amongst the other squirrels. Apparently, tests over the last few years have proven successful in predicting squirrel behavior, but why they insist on doubling back over the highway into traffic is still a mystery.

There's been much talk of the urban grey squirrels seeing the rural red squirrels off in London and that its only the North of England, Scotland and the Isle of Wight that still have the red squirrels. I had an urban squirrel moment today when, like something from a movie, a helicopter was hovering around the back of the house. I managed to snap a quick picture, somewhat fuzzy, and then with the miracle of Aperture turned a blurred dot into a recognizable form, complete with the tail identification of G-NTWK. A quick google later and I could piece it together as a Aérospatiale AS 355F2 Ecureuil 2 Squirrel helicopter working for Network Rail and presumably looking for some track to inspect with the prominent camera. I suppose its a black and yellow squirrel.

And here is Chase looking for the same Squirrel Levi looked for earlier. He was a mad dog about the Squirrels. He would hunch over at the door, ready to run outside, and then he’d head right for the tree. The dork.

Ethan attended a Curious George theme first birthday party this afternoon. The venue was at the children's playground of Manila Polo Club. Some kids were at the pools when we came. Ethan was mad because I intentionally did not bring swim suits for us since he still has coughs. The party place was decorated with inflatable animals, vines, and balloons. Ethan got the dinosaur inflatable.I was gazing at the Polo field ( trying to imagine myself astride a horse playing polo) when daughter # 4 shrieked. I just can't believe when daughter # 4 said that she saw a squirrel jumped from a tree. Her friend confirmed it.Squirrel? In the Philippines? Maybe what my daughter saw was a pigment of her imagination or is there really a Pinoy squirrel? Anyway, as always Ethan enjoyed the party.
Doggers, ALL of my labby senses were tingling this morning when I was out doing my business cause once again 'the squirrel' (see my March 18th post) was up, and I do mean up to NO GOOD!Now I know Spring is here sort of, and everyone is talkin about 'the buds', but I don't think they meant the kind of 'buds' 'the squirrel' was smokin. And of course there's no talkin to the guy and trying to get him to straighten out cause all you ever get back is 'dude relax don't stress, dude you're bringin me down', what ever that means, I'll bring him down alright.So I telling all you doggers out there, especially the puppers.... don't be lettin any slim shadey characters at the dog park trade you biscuits for skunky, squirrely 'bud'.

There isn't much to do in Richland, Indiana. There is a reproduction of Lincoln's childhood home where no one ever goes-- a failed attempt by the local Chamber of Commerce to promote tourism. There is a tavern situated in an old boxcar, and a restaurant housed in an imitation boxcar that serves a pretty good burger. I do not know where the Richlandian penchant for boxcars comes from, and neither did anyone I asked.My wife is from Richland, and she doesn't know. She thinks I'm an idiot for asking. She is probably right.Eight Thanksgivings ago, I dutifully took my wife and two kids, Samantha, 12, and Alex, 9, to Richland to spend the holiday. Thanksgivings at the Cummings household consist of Al, the patriarch, getting up up at eight in the morning, taking a seat at the head of the tabl

This is my latest miniature - a red squirrel in watercolour (actual size 1.75" x 2.25"). I have done this little fellow in coloured pencils earlier this year, but found him irresistible for a mini! He was a regular at a feeding station in the Highlands, so wasn't afraid of people even though he's wild. I've blown it up a bit below with the penny for scale: I'm just about to start on finches for the bird book, a rhododendron and hopefully fit in a bit of a break over the holidays!

One of the blessings of mountain cabin life was all the "critters" I met. Each morning I would take my sack of peanuts and wait for them. They would come just so near, then they would stop to give me a chance to throw the peanuts to them!It was not an intimate relationship they were seeking: they wanted the peanuts! They would have been much happier if I had thrown the peanuts on the ground and then disappeared out of sight. They wanted my benefits without contending with me. Today I ask myself if I'm anything like those squirrels. Is it a relationship with You I seek, or would I be just as happy if You would throw some blessings my way and then get out of the way? My human nature is a clue: it wants the benefits without the accountability and responsibility required by relationships. Before regeneration, I was a "normal" human. Being spiritually dead, I didn't understand the selfishness of my heart; but I've traveled with You long enough, Lord, to see the need for self-examination.

Squirrels are really cute, it’s been scientifically proven. It’s difficult for them to improve on their naturally high level of cuteness - one thing that helps them break through this glass ceiling is a squirrel fight. Check these two out - they got the quickness, man! It’s like Jet Li if he was small, fuzzy and bushy tailed. And never actually hit anyone. The one on the left seems to have good ground skills, but he needs to work on his striking or at least his take downs if he’s going to get anywhere in the ring on the patio.

It truly is a Manic Monday today. I don't know if you saw my last Thursday Thirteen, but it's a slide show of my family at the pumpkin patch. In this post i mentioned that Emma became enamored with a "Baby Pumpkwin", and she carried it around, hugging and kissing the baby like a good little mommy. Even though she didn't want to leave her baby outside, she relented rather easily when I explained that pumpkins grew outside and it would be just fine.Wednesday night we left our gourd treasures on a bench in our small front doorstep area. We staggered the sizes and it looked simple but pretty. We had 2 large pumkins, 2 small ones- including Emma's Baby Pumpkwin, and 3 teeny ones. Now *sniff* in retrospect, I wish I had snapped a picture.Saturday morning I grabbed my cuppa joe and walked over to my office armoire, while looking out of the window... and what should I see? A little squirrel looking at me, with a teeny tiny "pumpkwin" grasped in his teeth. I ran out side before he could man
