They like doing that sometimes.<br />-<br /><br />Roentarre - Squirrels do seem cleaner, but I'd like to get a good picture of a possum. Someday it will happen.<br />-<br /><br />Mountain Woman - I see so many because they're all angry with me. They're plotting against me and trying to figure out how to get revenge. :)<br />-<br /><br />Sharkbytes - I've had plenty of animals hide like that and completely get away with it. This one almost did. It didn't move at all until the last second.<br />-<br /><br />Ginnymo - Now you can follow along and I'll try to make it as real as possible for you. And I can look at your excellent animal pictures. They're not angry with you as they are with me.<br />-<br /><br />The Retired One - That's the way some little guys are. When you want them there, they run. When you want them gone, they won't budge. They just like being contrary.<br />-<br /><br />Betchai - Those animals would scare me too. I recently had a scary close encounter that I've been afraid to write about. It's coming soon.<br />-<br /><br />Diane - Your story is perfect! I've had this kind of thing happen to me with all sorts of different animals, some big some small. I've only seen one frog so far. They must be good hiders.<br />-<br /><br />Kiwi Riverman - Maybe no squirrels, but you have some of the most unique animals in the world.<br />-<br /><br />Ron - I just happened to get a lucky picture before he ran away. I wasn't very close to him at the time. I've seen only one that didn't mind my presence.Rick (Ratty)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04062449024949497557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637168036712963543.post-46170557055746780812009-05-03T22:35:00.000-05:002009-05-03T22:35:00.000-05:00That's one cute photo Ratty!

He just seems content with what he's doing and does not care that there's company nearby. :-)Ron Centenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00115283959086254809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637168036712963543.post-74720070856922907052009-05-03T22:32:00.000-05:002009-05-03T22:32:00.000-05:00Great blog!

I know this is not on squirrels, but I had a similar experience just the other day with a bull frog, but it was a girl frog just full of eggs and she couldn't be bothered to jump away from me. But at first she was so still and so camouflaged she could almost have been anything! Enjoy!

But the one chipmunk that is eating up all my birdseed is a brave one. I can almost touch him now to shoo him away from the seed. He just looks defiantly at me.
