Here is Lefty. I call her that because she has an injured left front paw. She keeps it curled under and can't walk on it. But, she does eat with it and it doesn't seem to slow her down for climbing and jumping. I spoil her a bit.

Lefty is cute. Poor thing with his injury I'm so glad he found you!
 

Thanks for the comments. The other squirrels can steal sunflower seeds from the bird feeders. But, Lefty can't manage it. So, I give her a little dish. They love sunflower seeds.

I've never been able to hand a peanut to Lefty, but she lets me come pretty close. Maybe in time. We feed the squirrels because they're fun to watch. I'm sure some of the neighbors don't appreciate the peanut plants coming up in their yards and planters. But, we think they're worth it. We also keep bird seed out and sugar water for the humming birds. Today we had a woodpecker visit long enough to tap out a message on our telephone pole.

Just an update on Lefty. She's still around. I saw her this morning. She comes right up to me. Sometimes she disappears for weeks and I figure she's gone for good, but now and then she shows up for her handout.
