Serious, Not a Game

I forgot to put more "squirrel & critter" food out today, so the squirrels had to really dig to find much. That apparently affected their tempers; normally the two that live in my neighborhood munch peacefully a yard or so apart, but today the one kept chasing off the other.

Either it's that or one is female, the other male, and he is horny and she is not!

It's early spring when many mating times kick in.

I showed this image to my 93-year-old mother at the nursing home, and she muttered "cute". I visited every day, but that was the last word I heard from her - she died on the morning of the 10th, so now I will always associate this image with my last meaningful interaction with her.

I now think these are both males, and the dominant one is establishing territorial pre-eminence.
