Back for the second day

The female black squirrel and the brown were back to the balcony for the second day in a row.

They must have a thing for each other.  There was one funny encounter.  The black was in the feeder with a nut,  The brown ran along the rail and jumped into the feeder.  Black exited on the left to the rail, brown exited on the right to the rail.  Didn’t get a shot it happened so fast.  They didn’t stay long, but I managed a few shots.

Their presence seems to have kept the young red and black away.

Looks like Red Legs but with a lot more hair.

If those 2 are going to mate, they're going to have to get a lot more sociable.

I haven't seen red legs in a while.

Chasing the female is part of the fun.
