I know that's going to be a chart-buster. No matter what anyone says, as long as they are outside of your house playing and gathering acorns, every one loves squirrels.
Dutchie just asked me to correct my typo. Spray the squirrels' tails - not their tales. This kind of error wouldn't happen if Dutchie had fingers and could type her own comments.
Togo had the same problem. His iPhone keypad was too small to ensure accuracy. And the FCC got involved a couple of times when autocorrect incited a great deal of outrage over what Togo believed were innocent statements. Tail spray is going on our list.
Our cat, Dutchie, likes to watch huge black squirrels running along the twisted branches of two jack pine trees in our front yard. I read your post to her and asked if she could suggest an easy way to identify the different squirrels she sees. Dutchie suggests squirting shots of different coloured spray paint on their tales. Oh, and she mentioned that the iridescent paints would work best.
We seem to have a scurry or scurries around us. I have over 100 trees on my 2+ acres so good cover and traveling branches. It’s hard to understand why they run into the street which often seems to be a bad decision so I will wait on the squirrel psychology post.
The running into the street behavior is puzzling, isn't it? Perhaps I can entice a local psychologist or two to drop by for some sessions with our scurry. Although, I don't have a lot of confidence it will be productive. Our group does a lot of chattering and screaming what I can only assume are expletive-filled diatribes against the "system." Although, they could also be proclaiming their intention to take their cause "to the streets." And thus, a partial answer to your original wonderment.
At first I was thinking different colored t-shirts ala Huey, Dewey, and Louie. But I doubt the squirrels will be happy having them pulled over their heads. So we're looking into tank tops.
My good friend Sparrow Wren just released her first album Feather and Fur. The first single is about a misunderstood squirrel named RJ!

It's already on all streaming platforms and has been on the radio. It's hilarious!

Our dog Dollie has great dismay for the many, many squirrels that live out here on the farm. It is lucky for them that she cannot climb trees!
