    Awwww, I couldn't wait to get home to see if my squirrels made it through Hurricane Irma. Even though my backyard was a disaster, and several sections of my fence were on the ground, as soon as the squirrels seen me, they made their way around all the debris , and patiently waited for some pecans!

      Where are you in Florida? I live in south Florida, no squirrels where I live so I feed the birdies instead🐥 Irma snapped their homes🌴🌴🌴 in half and placed them on the carport, thankfully no damage to the carport. We do have other🌴🌴🌴trees for them to move into🐥🐥🐥

      Bunneeluvr ...I am in Bradenton, FL which is South of Tampa and North of Sarasota. I was in a flood zone, so, I had no choice but to evacuate. My trees were torn apart, there is hardly anything left. Where do you live in Florida? Did you stay safe? ?

    I'm in Corpus Christi. the squirrel that visits my porch dug up the nuts from all my potted plants two weeks after Harvey when I returned and put the plants back out. And that's after I filled his two containers he shares with the birds. Felt so bad I bought him organic non gmo nuts both in and out of shell and fresh fruits and veggies. Now he's back at feeling secure and sharing more with the birds. Lol. These little guys make you appreciate The Creator. Thanks for sharing. God Bless you.

    I live in FL and have an Egret named grobbie that has been coming every summer for 5 years and the day before Irma he came and stayed half the night but when we woke he was gone and we were soooo worried about him then two days after Irma there he was hungry and begging for food. Its funny to see this big ass egret sitting on your windowsill tapping on the window trying to get food. Needless to say we were very happy to him.

      Larry N I'm helping the stupid people. Stupid people make non-Issues into big problems. First you start feeding the squirrels, then the raccooons catch wind, and then your neighbor's pet Fluffy gets found mauled in her driveway, but you didn't see anything. "I've been living here 20 years and we never had raccoons until recently. I hope nobody is feeding them" your elder Tory neighbor says, as you hide your shame and feign sympathy.

      They are wonderful and entertaining, if you understand they are wild and not the most brilliant of rodents. Even if you raise one from a pinkie, and I don't recommend it, there will come a time when you'll be bitten hard or find something utterly destroyed, or your friends will be attacked when they visit. Rehabbed baby squirrels may never forget you in their short lives, but they are like miniature raccoons in terms of destructiveness and primal urges.

We respected each others distance, but looked out for each other. Those squirrels might be angels in disguise, why not?!

    They are so funny to watch at my house. I used to have one that almost ate from my hand but my neighbor didn't treat him the same so he still comes to eat of course. I have a chipmunk I rescued whose hole flooded. He knew I gave him organic cashews and grapes and a water dish. He started to "bury" some of the bust in the towel in the box. It was in may of this year and it was chilly. He was so cold he didn't even run from me when I found him. So I was able to pet the chipmunk which was neat. I let him go and he ran up my pant leg to hide, which was funny. He scampered off and comes for nits daily. His tail is short and he doesn't run from us like he used too. All these little critters are pretty neat. Glad yours survived the storm.
    I have the video of the chipmunk in his box on my channel and an opossum hanging almost by his tail eating hummingbird food. Funny animals.

      Nice. Reminds me of when I fed a few different wild bird species on my balcony. Must have been some 6-7 years ago. Anyway, I was away for a few days and when I came back, they were freaking angry and tried to attack me. They came to expect my daily feeding, so I learned the hard way not to make them dependent.
      I didn't immediately get what was going on, so I waved my hands in anger and shouted at them for being this ungrateful with me. Didn't seem fair at the time, that they would do that after I cared so much for them.
