Picture Post, Sunday October 7, 2006

Sebastian, Florida.


Sebastian, Florida. These squirrels were very tame. I can only assume they are well fed by park visitors, they come much closer than your average skittish squirrel.


This is the easy to miss dirt road that will take you to the Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge, the America's first NWR. It's low key, but well worth the effort to find it. I wrote a post about Pelican Island a while back.

Also at Castaways Point Park in Palm Bay, Florida. This little memorial was hidden among some trees. No names. There are a lot of homeless people down here, and this park is out of the way and therefore one of their places to bed down at night. Though I actually have no idea who, or what kind of person is remembered here.

Yeah, these were in a park that has a fair amount of people visiting and I think for them to have kept coming up to me, they must be used to being fed by the visitors. They didn't stick around when they realized I had no food for them.

We have a lot of squirrels around our neighborhood, but they aren't tame like that. Our cat, Sassy, lives to try to catch herself a squirrel. She's caught every other kind of animal, rabbits, lizards, frogs, birds, etc., and left them as gifts. But no squirrels, yet.

Thanks for dropping by.
