About The Nest

Ooooh!  We're online now!

Ooooh! We’re online now!

Evil Squirrel’s Nest is a blog dedicated to my cute little critter creations, Evil Squirrel and his buddies.  ES was created by me, Bill Brown… overnight stocker by night, drawer of wacked out cuteness by day.

What will you find here at The Nest?  Well, obviously my artwork, which is interspersed into pretty much all of my posts.  The main subjects I often depict can be found in a page titled “Meet the Gang” under my header, with a brief description of each critter.  There is my weekly comic strip featuring my characters, which began on May 3, 2012 and has been published here every Thursday since then.  There are lots of squirrel pictures, especially on Saturdays, a day I have dedicated to pictures of real, live squirrels which I have taken over the years with my award winning shitty photography.  There’s also a lot of posts on just whatever I feel like expounding about.  There’s something here for everyone, and I hope you enjoy browsing about The Nest!

Look what I caught!

If you are visiting because I liked and/or commented on one of your posts, welcome to my little world!  I do random daily searches for “squirrel” on WordPress, and read the most recent posts containing that word.  Even if it has nothing to do with squirrels, I will still hit Like if I enjoy it!  It’s interesting to see the variety of blogs and bloggers there are out there on the internets!

I hope you enjoy the drawings and musings, and you might even want to visit my CafePress store, featuring many different designs I created printed out on a variety of different products and apparel, by clicking on the picture of Atomic ES on the right sidebar.  Thank you!

  1. Well, I know I had the word ‘squirrel’ in my post at least once. There have been a few more as my war with them and their rapacious ways is ongoing!

    • Thanks for visiting, and for teaching me a new word! I must use rapacious more often in my blog, it is perfect for our fine, fuzzy friends! Good luck in your battles, even if I might be rooting for the enemy ;)

  2. Nothing wrong with squirrels – just ask Squirrell Nutkin, Why do people battle with furry bodies squirrelling away their winter supplies . A squirrel’s got to eat for Pete’s sake !

    Had to think a bit before remembering my latest post said “we scattered like squirrels” in reference to how we used to be a flurry of activity “uptah camp” between May and September. Now we are here year-round, living with the squirrels!! Red ones, who yell at us like trespassers in our own yard. (I do write about those, real squirrels, too…hope you enjoy those posts as well. Thanks for reading!

    Little did I realize what I would conjure when I wrote about my thoughts on squirrels as I was deeply contemplating the meaning of life. Thanks for the levity and thanks for liking my post. I have great respect for comic strip artists (one of my husband’s mediums also) and will enjoy exploring the nest.
    All the best!

  7. Interesting to find out ways that random people come across my blog. Who would have thought that a throw-away line about “mentally deficient squirrels” would do the trick? Glad it did though! Your squirrel related posts could fill the “furry animal comic” void left behind when the Achewood guy stopped posting stuff (with anything resembling regularity).

    • Thanks for stopping by! I am very much intrigued by the search terms people use that get them to my blog as well, and I am planning a year end countdown on some of my favorites. It’s only a myth that everyone finds their way here do to searching for Spongebob and Sandy porn (which to their disappointment, they will not find)….

  8. Well, a casual mention of a squirrel has led me here! I like (a) your blog, and (b) your philosophy re: squirrel mentions. I’ll be back!

  9. Evil Squirrel! I actually thought you were a guy I know (who raises squirrels). I’m pleasantly surprised to find you here bringing them to life! Thanks for coming into my consciousness :)

    Thank you for searching on “squirrel” and liking my Samhain post! It got me to come here and read your blog! :)

  11. mskatykins says:

    Ha ha ha, so funny! One of next weeks Spineless Wonders features a squirrel! :)

  12. My short suppose to be Wordless Wednesday post had 4 of the s word that you google and so you clicking like on yesterday’s post led me straight to you. I like it here.. :) I think I will look around!

  13. MinkaM says:

    What a great blog! Who would have thought that a post about squirrels would have led me here. You’re quite talented, and I’ve enjoyed reading through your work. Thanks!

    Hi evilsquirrel13. Thank you for visiting mylifeasasquirrel and liking it. I have heard of evil squirrel before and though I had many squirrels in my life, none was evil… lol! To say I love squirrels in an understatement… I will be checking on your characters and stories too. Thank you again!

    Glad you enjoyed my post. You would have liked my son’s lullaby for squirrels…

  16. Thanks for liking at my blog, ES. I can’t believe I haven’t found yours earlier. Great work :) Squirrels rock!

  17. Ellen says:

    I like your work, fun that you found my evil squirrel

  18. I am in awe of squirrels’ intelligence. they never give up when trying to solve a problem; and the problem is always how to get more food!

    You may have missed a post I wrote a long time ago called “My Squirrel is Smarter than Yours.”
    It’s on my blog.

  19. If Saturday never comes……. good job!

    You guessed it. I found you through the like you put on my blog. I’ve only been blogging since August 2012 so using that method of checking out other folk’s blogs I’ve slowly grown my list of favorites. I’m a photography fanatic and have been for more than 40 years. Now retired I’ve found blogging on WordPress, Tumblr & 500pix a better way to share my photos. I don’t sell them. I look forward to following your blog as it has a unique feel and great humor. As an art major in college I appreciate your artwork. Great idea! – Bob

    Hi! I nominated you for The Versatile Blogger Award! Thanks so much for your wonderful and fun blog. I enjoy it very much. Your artwork, comics, and posts never fail to put a smile on my face. Go squirrels!! :)

    Well considering we’ve been discussing the weather, and I’ve just discovered you majored in meteorology, how could I not give you the Sunshine Award? I mean, really! The details and rules are on my blog tomorrow.

  23. You burst my bubble. I thought that good fortune had brought you to my blog not a squirrel or rather the phonetic squirrel. Anyway, as we say resignedly in my country “everything for the good.”
    Love your blog.

  24. Who knew that finding a squirrel under my stove last night would lead me here? Love it!!!

  25. Julia says:

    That sounds fun to search a particular word. I admire your dedication. Lol. I know exactly where squirrel featured on the post of mine you liked even though I did have to think for a few moments to remember.

    • It’s interesting what turns up… I’ve found all sorts of blogs just by searching for “squirrel”! Most of my small but loyal group of true followers came to this blog the same way, and it’s a pretty diverse group! I liked your header with all the hamsters! Thanks for visiting The Nest!

  26. Hi there – I came to your blog by way of Press “M” for Menopause and I’m really glad I did! You’ve got some great stuff here. I’m looking forward to working my way around the nest :-)

  27. Found your site through “Press M for Menopause.” Cute patootie cartoons.

  28. I’m so glad you stopped by my blog so I could discover yours! Yay squirrels!
