Anyway, if someone knows how to get neosporin onto a wild but friendly squirrel, I’m all ears. (Mostly kidding). Also did you know that there’s a man on the internet who sells ivermectin just for squirrel mange? That is all. 4/4

All the others chase each other, but she’s always solo. Until today. I looked out at the fence and there was another adult squirrel with her, trailing right behind her. No aggression. I realized he has an injured paw. I don’t know how they came to be together but they are the sweetest outcasts. 3/

She keeps scratching the same spot open, along with one of her eyes that I’m now pretty sure she’s blind in. Despite that, she survived the windstorm and smoke from the Eaton fire like a champ. But she always visits alone, and the others don’t bother her or try to defend territory from her. 2/

We have gulf fritillaries here and they’re one of my favorites! Just posted a photo of one.

Ahh this is so cool! I don’t know how he ended up on our street, but he’s more than welcome to our walnuts.

I would give anything for someone to ask her what DNA stands for.
