Monday Picture Blogging: The City is an Ecosystem.
Hayley and I went to Lincoln Park today to walk around and feed the squirrels. We couldn't find too many (we think they ran off towards the Zoo where more abundant free food was available) but we still managed to get some good pictures.
Since we couldn't feed many squirrels we gave the ducks some peanuts. This may have been stupid of us, but they seemed to like them.
When they are hungry they will come right up to you and take the peanut out of your hand. Once the squirrel actually ate the nut while resting against Hayley.
I think he's a handsome squirrel. He's currently shedding his winter coat.
He may be an Eastern Grey. But I'm not sure as there are quite a few different species.
