I'm outside replenishing the bird & squirrel feeders & here come a bunch of squirrels running across the neighbors' yards toward mine, like a bunch of kids when they hear the dinner bell. Then run around my feet & the tree trunk before going up the tree a little bit, peeking around & waiting for me to finish so they can dive in. LOLOL I laughed so hard I thought I'd scare them but nope. I swear they watch & recognize me. LOL They're smart & crafty little buggers tho cuz they periodically sneak into my garage if the door is open & somehow manage to get the lid off the ice cream pail that I keep the bird food in, W/OUT chewing on it. It's just as if someone's lifted it off by hand cuz it's a pretty tight fit so can't be removed too easily. Next thing you know, they'll be knocking on the door or ringing the doorbell when they're hungry. Or God help me, calling me for a take-out order! ROFL!!!

The white squirrel is Marsha (Not sure if male or female but it's short for marshmallow. LOL). Then there's the others: Nutzie, Chatty, Boss Hog, Percy (as in persistant. LOL). Percy's the one that keeps trying to get into the tall birdfeeder but there's wire netting inside so he can't. :-p
Joy, I need those 1-2 bird identity sites please, if you don't mind? There's been a really small blue bird out here the last couple of days so I'd like to know what kind it is. It's a really pretty blue that's a little darker than a BlueJay w/a little bit of black on its back by by the tail, & maybe a tad white on its underbelly. No other colors. It's bigger than a Hummingbird but smaller than a sparrow.....
Thanks! :)

After finding the Indigo Flycatcher pics, I'm leaning towards that being it.
