Mein 1. Video:
Eichhörnchen am Fensterbrett
Zu Anfang waren sie schüchterner, jetzt kann ich direkt hinter
der Scheibe stehen und filmen, bzw. fotografieren. Bei offenem Fenster springen sie weg. Am liebsten fressen sie Walnüsse. Damit wir nicht nur den Rücken sehen, haben wir einen Saugnapf am Fenster befestigt, mit einer Nusshälfte dran. Sie kommen auch gerne zur gleichen Zeit, bevorzugt vormittags. Wir sind immer ganz entzückt, wie auf dem Video zu hören ist.
Red Squirrel
Net terug van camping Noordster bij Dwingeloo Drenthe.
Dit is een van de leuke souvenirs.
Eerder was hij mij op minder dan vier meter genaderd, maar ik kon toen geen foto maken.
Hij keek me strak aan en ik durfde toen niet te bewegen.

Red squirrel at National Capital Commission trail, Mer Bleue, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada: very interested in seeds at a feeding station, but reluctant to come any closer to nearby people.
* * *
Mammal. Solitary animals, red squirrels scold intruders in their territory. They growl, screech, chirp, rattle, and buzz. Active during the day, they spend the warmer months preparing for winter by finding and hiding food. They do not hibernate, but if the weather is very cold, a squirrel will stay in his nest until it is warmer. A red squirrel usually has several nests in tree hollows or underground tunnels, and any number of food caches. Each cache might hold two hundred pine cones. Using their keen sense of smell, red squirrels can easily locate stored food even under a meter (3 ft) of snow! Adults weigh about .2 -.34 kg (7-12 oz). (per "Animal Profiles ~ Red Squirrel")
