DavidEccleston - Those black squirrels bring me back to my college days at Kent State. Campus was overrun with those guys. I remember having a great picture of one eating a french fry. Unfortunately, all my pictures of the black squirrels were with film, and I have no clue where that film is anymore.


Steve - Is that a Diamond Python?


**So far Denise

Here are some of my Squirrel pictures taken at a wildlife sanctuary. They model for the camera and in return only ask for a few peanuts.





Ready Set






And then of course I have those in my back yard that believe they are birds.

@Denise- we have gliders, which glide between trees, around 200-400 mm long, with a membrane stretching between elbow and ankle. We have bandicoots, which are big rat looking things about 400mm long. And a whole heap of different possums from 200-500mm long. No squirrels, but there is something called a squirrel glider.


@dsiegel- The snake is a common carpet python, non-venomous, constricts and suffocates its prey.Gets to over 3 m long that one was just over 2m. We had one in the roof of our home through winter, but its gone now. Don't know where it went.


All the other animals are the same. Except for these guys.. Could be a gum tree squirrel...nah

Ohh and then there's the platypus, nobody knows what's going on with that thing.


Cheers.
