E. Brown Belly
It had been our coldest night of the year so far. And when I looked out, not a single squirrel could be seen out hunting. The bird feeders were empty, so I figured that was the reason for no critters. When I opened the door to go out and fill them up, there was Brown Belly just sitting in my chair. He didn't notice me at first, but when he did, he went into beggar mode. He ate a bunch of almonds, without ever leaving my chair. I filled up the bird feeders and a few other squirrels showed up to get theirs.

THE SQUIRREL
Our home has a wonderful backyard that borders on a small lake. We love sitting around and watching all the wild life from a bay window in our breakfast nook, and when it's nice outside, we sit on our deck and enjoy the view. We put up a bird feeder and a little squirrel house.

Besides the birds, we get squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, ducks, and more. Since my wife and I are retired, we enjoy feeding them and encouraging them to come into our back yard to play, frolic AND EAT
When it's nice, I feed them personally while sitting on the deck. As they are getting more used to me and less afraid, they like to come up and beg for almonds while I'm out there.
When the weather is bad, I stand at my back door and throw the almonds to them, and I spread a bunch of peanuts around as well.
This contest is simple... simply predict which of the squirrels will come up and beg/eat first. To make this easier, it's multiple choice and there are only 6 choices
Here is your cast of characters...

The true Alpha Male of our back yard. Fast, agile, aggressive and always chasing the others away
B. Piggy

Number 2 in the pecking order. A little slow, but big and doesn't scare easily. ALWAYS hunting for food
C. Scar

Scar has been in fight or "two"
D. Lady

Always hanging around on the perimeter and will take a "roll in the tree" at a moments notice
E. Brown Belly

Very friendly, and also very smart
F. The Field (Other)

Our back yard attracts all the squirrels in the neighborhood, and some of them are really characters:
Wimp - is scared of everything
Itchy - constantly scratching
Stevie Wonder - smart, but blind as a bat
Thug - slow but huge
Rat - He looks like one with his pencil thin tail
Acrobat - While not an Alpha, Acrobat is daring and unafraid, making incredible climbs and jumps... but does sometimes takes a header
Poser - The new girl on the block
And a host of others...
