Spring and Summer in Finland 2015
Over here spring has already arrived a while back, I hope in Finland it did too. Time for a new chapter in the great Squirrel Saga

It is Mr Spock, but I'm not sure. It's a male, and the tassels are very long. hm.. but the guy looks like 'thin'... not fat, slim! And his face is .. how to say.. is it normal to say: 'narrow face'? Rat face? I have nothing against rats! ..long profile, sharp nose.. my English!!
continues, the same squirrel begun to take the hazel nuts:

Mr Spock (it's a guess):
He hurried back and forth to take all the hazer nuts to a better place:
He was fast, but I managed the get some of the moments in the following video:
It was fun to see how the squirrel looked like little robber. The nuts were for him! For him too, of course.

Nanu is very handsome and he certainly seems to be enjoying his treat.
Narrow face, rat face, long profile, pointy nose -- all seem fine and very descriptive.

Ok, alice, and thanks!
Today was a very cold day. The morning looked normal, but then, in one hour the ground was white again:
Sudden snow fall on Squirrel hill in a spring afternoon:
Several squirrels have been visiting. I guess they were hungry and were not able to find all those nuts they have put in the lawn, in the ground hole, soil.

So, there was a heavy snow fall. I put an umbrella hanging from the apple tree to keep the new sun flower seeds not to be buried in the snow.
The snow fall almost stopped and the red tailed morning visitor was back, can't say for sure:
Anyway, it's an afternoon visitor!

The squirrels are also cute and I love the umbrella idea -- perfect.
