They will come near you waiting for food and when they realize you don't have food they will leave. They are extremely friendly and interact with us humans here all the time.

I have been around all types of squirrels in parks and in the wild for many years and have never been attacked. They are naturally curious. The only time they are aggressive is when they feel threatened or they are so used to being fed and they are looking for a handout.SquirrelQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-353302510092618255.post-90641066560110821002010-06-05T10:02:38.789-07:002010-06-05T10:02:38.789-07:00Think of being in Butchart Gardens in Victoria, BC...Think of being in Butchart Gardens in Victoria, BC.

We just stopped and didn't move because we didn't want them to attack us. It was a long stand off and finally, my husband said to walk slowly away from them. A few did follow us but they eventually left us alone.RoseBellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10152651219690178817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-353302510092618255.post-35905751578739134272010-06-04T18:06:57.507-07:002010-06-04T18:06:57.507-07:00wow, great shots, Jo, love that shot where the tai...wow, great shots, Jo, love that shot where the tail was lit, gorgeous squirrelbetchaihttp://www.thejoysofsimplelife.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-353302510092618255.post-58206004811600761272010-06-04T14:05:48.298-07:002010-06-04T14:05:48.298-07:00Ann, completely useless, everyone ignores it :DAnn, completely useless, everyone ignores it :DJoanne Olivierihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01856998108256408734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-353302510092618255.post-38799245410888517702010-06-04T13:51:34.248-07:002010-06-04T13:51:34.248-07:00Aren't they cute.
