Welcome to Tuesday of Squirrel Awareness Week 2008!
I haven’t had the opportunity to snap any shots of squirrels around the neighborhood yet this week, but never fear, Flickr has a wide assortment to satisfy your squirrel photo viewing needs. Did you know that there is a Squirrel Awareness Week Flickr group? Join up! There is also the Squirrels group, the Outwitting Squirrels group, Squirrel Fishing (“Just photos of squirrel fishing please!”), The Happy Squirrel, Funny Squirrels, and the inevitable Squirrels Gone Wild.
Feeling overwhelmed by the sheer volume of squirreliana available at Flickr? Fret not, as I have done the hard work and gathered some of the best here.

A new take on the classic, this one is clearly superior due to the inclusion of a squirrel.

Make a wish by Mandj98
This guy is thinking so hard! Either that or he’s very cold, but given the amount of, erm, padding he has, it would seem that that’s probably not it.

Dinnerbell, dinnerbell, do the bell thing. P.S. Tiny squirrel tongue!

licking the window by seizethedave
You have to be pretty thirsty to literally lick the windows (I prefer to do so figuratively).

Squirrel parkour!

Baby Gray Squirrel by audreyjm529
I don’t know if this little one has been featured at Cute Overload, but he so should be! So cronsh-able.

crazy hair squirrel by Marko_K
If squirrels could be punk, they would have this hair. That would be my kind of squirrel.

My Apple by GailJohnson
This looks so posed but it appears to be genuine. The moment after this, I bet the squirrel rolls the apple down the branch a la Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark and takes out the squirrel trying to steal his nuts.

I am seriously not sure how something like this happens. Makes for a striking pic, though. If you’ve got a strong stomach, check out this fascinating and disgusting shot.

Squirrels are so cute. I see them often and always talk to them.
That is awesome! I don’t know quite what it is about squirrels that fascinates me so, but they are so intriguing.
Nice blog, I was doing a little web snooping and happened onto your blog, I was wondering if you knew your website is rendering strangely within the K-mellon browser. I can see everything but the pictures are somehow out of whack. Most likely not a big deal since basically no one utilizes it any longer however I am old school and still run it.
Do you mean K-Meleon? I’m not familiar with it but I’ll do a little looking and see if I can improve the display here. Thanks for the nudge!
