Before the kerfuffle of the clear-cutting on the Mountain I had taken these pictures of a squirrel teasing Claus. He had Claus captivated for over a half an hour or more! In each picture I am amazed at the squirrels apparent lack of fear.
The pictures had to be taken through our dinning room window and so are not as clear as I would like, but oh so fun!

Have a fun weekend, Ya’ll!
Pure fun — but I’m always betting on the squirrel!
Me too, Linda! Unless it is Neville, then all bets are off!
Yech!
Thanks, you have a great weekend too! Love the pics! ❤

Thank you, Diana! I’m glad you loved the kitty/squirrel pics.
Ha, I just left you a message about your new gravitar picture on your blog… didn’t know you would be leaving a comment. 😉
do do do do do do do – tune to the twilight zone show…we must be on the same wave length Lynda!
😀
This is hilarious!
It was, Julie, and I just couldn’t believe how long the game lasted!
Ha ha ha!! Claus is being outwitted I’m afraid. Those squirrels are such teasers, aren’t they?
Lori, I have seen them race circles about the big oak tree trunks teasing each other, but must say this guys adrenaline level must have been in high gear that morning!
How one bored squrrel can light up your life!
Annie, that is it exactly! 😀
It’s the Claus Entertainment Center! Next act to come in a few more days.
Nancy
Indubitably!
Nancy, he is the sweetest and most entertaining cat we have ever had. We hope he has a long with us. 😀
OMG! Those pictures are so great!!! My squirrels are nowhere near as fearless as that little guy is!
I humbly ask for your permission to use the Face Off picture for my Saturday Squirrel feature next week, please! I will give credit and post a link to your blog! I think my readers will love that picture as much as I do! Plus, since January 21st is National Squirrel Appreciation Day, the image of a cat and a squirrel peacefully sharing a tree is a perfect tie in!
Bill, of course you can use it and I’m glad you enjoyed the series I was hoping you would. 😀 My only regret is my dirty dinning room window. (I must remedy that when the weather warms again.)
I have to say, that like you, I’d never seen any of our squirrels act in such a fearless fashion before that day. He might well be one in a million.
Thanks!!!
I’ve shot plenty of my Saturday Squirrel pictures through nasty windows… but somehow, the awesome squirreliness still shines through!
You’re welcome, Bill!
What a fun series of photos!
Hello Laurie! I had fun with this one. I was hoping the dusty windows didn’t obscure the squirrel too much. Glad you could see him. 😀
Claus and this adrenaline powered squirrel have been featured on The Evil Squirrel’s Nest in honor of Squirrel Appreciation Day!

Thank you Evil Squirrel!
I love squirrels. I’ve had on or two climb up my leg (it’s a bit of a shock at first). 🙂
I should think so! LOL! Thank you for taking the time to look about today, Graham. 😀
