The squirrels in the back yard have been extremely active, too. Skittering back and forth and chirruping constantly at each other--I think they're fighting over territory. One very curious one climbed right up to me as I was sitting on the playhouse deck and touched the leg of my pants.

It's not actually that hard to tame a squirrel. I've done it a couple times. If you hang out there regularly, just bring some nuts or bread with you, and toss them bits of food, increasingly close to you. If you don't make a lot of noise/sudden movements they'll eventually come and take food from your hand.
