The best years of Walt's life were on his father's farm. There, he learned to appreciate life and developed a love for the animals which filled his busy days.
Even at his own home in California, his wife Lillian once ask to please have the squirrels removed from their property as they were eating all of their lovely fruits and nuts.
Walt replied to his lovely wife, "Well Lilly, you can go to the store, they can't!" The squirrels were left alone.
Keeping this wonderful tradition alive, the Disney Studio has the most lovely collection of tree squirrels living on it's premises. They enjoy the beautiful walnut trees and of course, the many handouts. While there are signs which state 'Do Not Feed The Squirrels', these little fellows seem very well taken care of.
This furry little guy actually climbed down his tree and ran right at me! He thought I had peanuts, but as he got closer he realized that I didn't have any peanuts, but that I was, in fact, just plain nuts! He chattered at me and then ran to some actors who were feeding his friends.
