The bun is as big as he is xD

Some of us wish for gold, or fame... squirrels wish for a gigantic honkin' lump of bread. :3

Hehe, cute picture!

I love feeding squirrels, they're so adorable. Especially in Yosemite, those guys really know how to beg. :) And before somebody jumps on me for feeding wildlife, I maintain that since those squirrels are more domesticated than my house cats they are not wildlife. :-P

The chipmunks in Yosemite are pretty forward too. Also, the yellow-bellied marmots... those guys are like if beavers and squirrels got together and had kids.

Really? I've always found the chipmunks to be a bit less tame, and haven't seen any marmots in years. But those squirrels, man... I was hiking up to Vernal Falls and had one *run* down the trail toward me! He knew what the deal was. And on top of Vernal Falls, it took just three almonds and I had a squirrel standing up on my knee. And my domestic cat, that we've had for three years, still occasionally tears off in a panic when we enter the room. Wildlife... yeah, right. :)

It probably depends on the season, and whereabouts you encounter them. I've had chipmunks walk across the tops of my shoes as though I wasn't even there (possums too, which is a bit more disconcerting). The marmots that I remember were mostly up in the high country, but at least at some of the overlook points they were clearly used to people being around... you could get within about 5 feet before they'd grudgingly scoot back into their dens.

I love how he's all hunched over, like some sort of crazy squirrel hoarder.

It's like if a person went for a hike and stumbled across a gigantic, delicious lump of crispy bacon. His world is now complete.

Thank you Squirrel God!

I knew that little masonry statue of X'r'b'ch'chr'chr'chrrrr, Etherial Vessel of Squirrely Goodness that I've been leaving pistachio nuts at the feet of was going to pay off sooner or later!

...And why doesn't this squirrel wish for a nut that big? >:Y

Well, I figure, why wish for just a bigger version of something you've already got, when you could wish for something more spectacular? It's like, I could ask for a Ferrari... or I could ask for a flying moon Ferrari with bottomless mojitos in the drinks dispenser! :3

...So true. <: Now all he has to do is take it back home. which is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY over there.

But since it's a magic wish-bun, it can fly. :3

BUT WHAT IF HE EATS IT? does this give him the ability to fly? : o

How do you think Rocky the Squirrel was able to get off the ground? ;3

Now with extra nom!

but now.. how will he get it into his storage bin? he certainly can't climb a tree carrying it! o.o

maybe he can get another squirrel to help him, for a cut of the bread.

I think his plan is to cram the whole shebang into his cheeks and then build a little hut around himself.

nom nom nom!

And nom again, I say!

Almost overlooked this but,: Squirrel!!

Now with buns!
