My kids loves them

Someone here mentioned squirrel with one stamp from full set of Yugoslavia, and recently I was in Belgrade Kalemegdan Park, where few of them freely run around visitors, and be sure - it is great pleasure to sit and near You will come "family" of squirrel, sit near You in one row, and they will wait for some food. I like them well.
