Pre-storm prep in Tompkins Square Park



Ahead of Harper's arrival this weekend, the squirrels of Tompkins Square Park are stocking up on essentials, including peanuts ... peanut butter ... bananas ... pizza ... Hershey's Cocoa ... Toaster Strudel ... coconut drinks ... and don't forget spoons.

Today in photogenic squirrels in Tompkins Squirrel



Another day, another squirrel doing something adorable (or terrifying, depending on your opinion of squirrels) in Tompkins Square Park...

EVG Senior Squirrel Correspondent Steven spotted this squirrel enjoying some sap from a tree near Avenue A and Ninth Street...





Naturalists have noted that when a squirrel's stash of pinecones and nuts gathered during the summer and fall run low, they will often turn to sap for an energy boost... sap as well as pizza, crackers, bananas, pumpkins and Hershey's Cocoa.

Today in photos of a squirrel eating a banana peel in Tompkins Square Park



The photo from earlier today is via Goggla, who wishes that she videotaped this encounter. "The squirrel was scraping the tasty bits off the peel by rolling it up and then pulling it out between its teeth."

JUST LIKE A HUMAN.
