Unless you’ve been under a rock, you’ve seen the infamous vacation squirrel in Banff National Park, Canada.

Some clever person has created a web site allowing us to squirrelize our own photos.  Mashable squirrelized 10 iconic photos.

My favorite author Susan Wiggs squirrelized a photo with her editor on her blog.

In the realm of shameless plugs, Susan’s Tudor Rose Trilogy will be re-issued soon.  At the King’s Command comes out this month; The Maiden’s Hand in September; and At the Queen’s Summons in October.  On her web site, Susan explained:

These books were researched and written when the Information Superhighway was a mere goat track. But the themes and storylines are timeless, exemplifying the things that have always been important to me, both as a reader and a writer: fiercely honest emotion, ordinary people experiencing extraordinary challenges, passion and adventure, and of course, a satisfying ending.

Y’all know I’m nutty about squirrels.  So, while I’m waiting for a call from the fair housing folks to see if the ridiculous retaliatory eviction for feeding squirrels is going to stick, I thought I’d post a couple photos of squirrels gone nutty.

Susan Wiggs squirrelized this photo of Bitzie and teased me about my lack of techno-savvy:  “So easy, even a kitty can do it!”

This next photo is of a disAbled female squirrel.  It appears she was in a fight for her life.  Her right eye doesn’t open completely, and she struggles to be mobile.  If you look closely, you can see the scar on her thigh.  I admire her because she is clever and resourceful, determined and persistent, and very, very brave.  She’s a survivor.  She frequently uses my plant stands like a crutch to stablize her body while she eats.
