I have been fascinated with squirrles all my life. I found one baby fallen from a tree during my school days and I picked him up and brought him home. The poor thing had not even opened his eyes. As soon as he opened he assumed I am his mama dear, surprised that I am not all that fuzzy but nevertheless warm enough. I named him "chun-chun" because of his constant racket. For a few days he was happy in the shoe box but then he found a better place. He used to hang on to his dear life in the pockets of my pyjamas and stayed there the entire day. I let him go once he was a little more wiser.

This particular squirrel is my latest baby. We have a wonderful balcony just touching a fir tree. This chap used to sit there and watch. I decided that maybe he is hungry and from that dayastarted this new relationship. He comes and sits there every morning now, waiting for me to give him something. He is not picky, gobbles up almost anything.

Haven't named him yet ! any suggestions ?
