This little guy was hiding in the brush on the side of the road. We stopped along Pacific Coast Highway to take some pictures and he came out of the brush and walked right up to my wife. She screamed, of course... and then my buddy said we should try to feed him some of the strawberries we'd just picked up along the way. We fed him about 4-5 of them and he was never really scared and never tried to bite. Just took the strawberries, disappeared into the brush, and came back for more. Cool experience.Squirrel!.JPG

He better hope the next guy with a smile ain't a hungry homeless man.

Beware of rabies in 'friendly' wild animals. [frypan]

Who is that shooting from the front of the car?

Hmm Squirrels are supposedly only attracted to other squirrels...

Isn't luring rodents with treats a violation of your probation?

Gene, my friend Brad took the photos while my wife actually got it on video. She's at the back of the car. In the distance there was a guy with an even fancier camera, on a tripod, taking shots of the cliffs that we originally pulled over to photograph.

It was a rental, Gene. There were 4 of us, all with luggage, on a road trip to SF... knowing we were taking the PCH on the way home.

I didn't want to put 1,000 miles on my car in a week and neither did my wife. So we rented a 2013 Ford Explorer for a week.

That must have been a really fun experience!

Unfortunately, you probably violated a bunch of EPA and state Game Commission regulations by feeding a squirrel without proper permits and authorization. 😳

Man, by not driving your car you are creating a garage queen. I should know, I have a 1993 Corvette convertible with original tires and not even 28k miles on the clock. [-x
