  1. He was in the front of the line when tails were handed out. It's beautiful. Love to see the new growth everywhere.

    2. I know he's hunched over, but I wonder if that tail is as long as he is tall!

  4. Picture perfect! Too bad squirrels don't eat fish. He could use his tail for bait. It looks especially long.

  6. This fellow has nice coloring too. I read somewhere that when the squirrels have bushy coats and tails that it's going to be a bad winter. The squirrels here were real bushy but we had a mild winter.............so much for that!

  7. My goodness, that really is a long tail. We have some gray squirrels that think our yard is their personal playground. Never still enough for me to grab a photo though.

  12. That is one beautiful and huge tail!! sometimes I think luckily we do not have tails because I am sure it would become a subject to 'fashion' ... too thin, too thick, too hairy, not hairy enough ... lol
