cant decide if this is more or less funny than the high on opium wallabies making crop circles on Australian poppy farms

Wow!

I think wallabies and crop circles win! 😂

At least 100 squirrels

I must have seen at least 100 squirrels just walking down one block in Irvine. That’s the EDGE of the lot. There must be even more inside.

Observations uploaded to iNaturalist in 2019:

There were a *lot* of squirrels in the hedge and lawn between an empty lot and the street. I posted on Twitter at the time that I’d seen at least 100 along the edge of the block.
