I don’t trust wild animals that approach humans. Especially ones with sizable claws.
I could imagine him scaling my body and then trying to burrow through my hair. I’m sure he just thought I had food. But still…

Oops, sorry…I got so involved in relaying my close encounter with squirrels I forgot to say these are both great shots! 🙂
Haha, thanks! I love your story…and after my encounter with this squirrel, I can see how that would happen. Aggressive little things!
He’s adorable in an aggressive kind of way! I was laying on the beach once years ago and several squirrels came down from a cliff and walked right up to my blanket. I was actually sleeping on my stomach at the time. What got my attention was the squirrel who got on top of me and walked right over my back! 🙂
cool 🙂
lol. wow thats kinda creepy. friendly wild animals r kinda intimidating :S
They’re cute, but so unpredictable!
