I actually love squirrels, black ones in particular. I once tried to rescue a baby squirrel who fell out of a tree. It was too late though, but I picked the maggots out of his head so he'd have a little dignity before he died. His name was Wiggles.

I also stop walking/biking to look at squirrels. I like biking in the trails cause of all the little critters. My best bike journey last year was one day on the trails when I spotted an entire family of raccoons in one tree, like ten babies! That was the one day I didn't bring my camera too. I stared at them for like an hour before crestfallenly biking away.

P.S. lol @ "have" to "has" -- I almost called you out on it.
