I’m not used to seeing wild rabbits *relaxing*
Blinking Squirrel
I took so many photos of this #squirrel trying to get a good shot yesterday that I caught it blinking.

This Say’s Phoebe, unlike the squirrel, was kind (or unconcerned) enough to stay put while I walked around it to get both a better angle and better light. #birds #nature #SaysPhoebe

This squirrel ran along the top of the fence at the edge of a park and then climbed into a tree.
California Ground Squirrel
OneThree of four ground squirrels I saw, three outside the chain-link-enclosed area where they seem to live.
This one was looking around outside the fence before it ran inside, joining another one that I hadn’t seen until they both started moving.
This one was eating, then ran back to the fence for safety as I got closer, looked around for a bit before diving inside.
This one was darting around the lawn nearby.

Caught in the act
I spotted this squirrel as it ran up to the trash can opening. Once it decided I wasn’t going to leave, it jumped down, then ran past the trash can and apparently found something to eat, though I couldn’t see what.
Desert Cottontail
This rabbit was right next to the trail and darted out from cover as soon as I got too close to it. Then I tried to get a photo where you could actually see something of its head other than its ears, and waited, and waited, and waited until it finally ran off the rest of the way.
I saw this squirrel a few lots down the street while I was out walking.
I saw this #squirrel a few lots down the street while I was out walking. It paused. I paused. I got my camera out. It stood up to look around. I kept my camera out. Then it slowly ran down the street almost but not quite in my direction until it passed about 4 feet away, then paused in the shade before continuing on its way. I think it started trying to determine whether I was a threat or not, and then whether I was likely to give it food or leave it alone. #nature
California Ground Squirrel
I see tree squirrels around town all the time, but this is the first ground #squirrel I’ve spotted in ages. You can tell by the narrower tail. and the pattern of the fur.
And when I moved too fast it dove into the hole instead of running off.
This squirrel ran across the street, under a car, across a lawn and up into a tree.

Nervous Squirrel
I heard chattering and slowly walked toward this tree in a city park. Once I got to it, I stopped, and slowly looked around until I spotted the #squirrel up in the branches, just looking at me and waving its tail very rapidly. I took two photos, then walked away.
Two crows chased a squirrel across the lawn at a park…
Two crows chased a squirrel across the lawn at a park, one of them swooping down and possibly making contact with its claws (I couldn't quite tell) until it ran up this tree.Then they perched on a nearby fence and waited. When it tried to run down the trunk, they flew at it again and it went back up. One crow perched on another branch of the tree and waited, while the other flew off.
