Thanks Laurie. He is actually even more adorable in this video (20 seconds). We gave him some sunflower seeds and I was totally amazed by his ability to champ them so quickly!! http://youtu.be/MD--FWW0Xnk

How cute, I love it's ears! They are so different from the gray squirrels we have living in our backyard. This photo is adorable with the tongue sticking out.
