We've been able to share some quality time with a new batch of red squirrels this year. This female appears to be the matriarch. She's not tame enough to have her tail 'clipped' with a code, but she has a VERY distinctive and strange forking at the tip of her tail. The injury for which she was named, Wounded Knee, has long since healed and is no longer a distinguishing feature.
This is a young male (obvious), with beautiful deep ginger coloring and a deep commitment to removing all chipmunks from the vicinity of his food pile. We refer to him as PJ - he has a very dark line around his muzzle, and down the center of it.
