This showed up in the front yard one day. My son and I took it to a local pond and let him go.

Went walking around the edge of the San Francisco Bay, in Emeryville...the last thing I expected to see was several families of squirrels. But there they were...popping up out of nowhere

Then disappearing...
Then popping up again--

And carefully navigating their way up a small hill between trees--

Look at that tail! And.... those ears.

Speaking of Turtles, this snapping turtle is about 2 feet long. Here, just it's head rises above the surface for a moment, like a periscope on a U Boat, scanning to see if a convoy of baby ducks may be approaching.

A Chipmunk a moment before it decided to take a leisurely stroll over the top of both my feet. I thought it was going to attack me. I froze like a popsicle.

Day of the killer chipmunks, Will ... .

What a beautiful little creature! Lovely shot, too.

Miserable little bastages.....

I had a yard full of them. They dig holes all over, dig in the flower pots, everywhere.

They would sit on top of two terra cotta lions on the porch and make noises which sounded like laughing.

They are someone else's problem now, I sold the house over a year ago...

You guys have land tortoises in Fla? Whereabouts?

It wasn't because of the chipmonks though? Was it?

Do all wolve's have the same eye colour? Is there variation?

Do all wolve's have the same eye colour? Is there variation?

Apparently it varies. Yellow is predominant, also Amber, Brown, Blue. I think Green may also be in the mix. Coyotes on the other hand only have brown eyes, which makes it harder to positivrly ID a wolf with brown eyes from a photo alone. I'm actually waiting on a return email from a professor regarding an ID of an animal I photographed the other day.
