California Ground Squirrel

.
Early April 2013, near Cambria California

The squirrels were almost tame.    Many of the squirrels we have seen here seem to have tails that have square ends.  Maybe the ones I am seeing have had their tails, err, "trimmed"?  I am not sure I have a good photo of that square.  Since this particular critter was more than willing to have it's photo taken, I am more than willing to share it with you.

I know, squirrels are considered pests by many, and some will think they are boring.  I think they are our Makers's critters and this one was extremely cooperative with Sony Too and that made it a fun experience.

This is the same squirrel as is over at Reflections From the Fence.
