And their not very gun shy either. 
Still winter out here though so could be tough..
PArks Canada has been trapping and relocating them from around the town entrance and cemetery area last year.. Not sure but I think it has something to do with future pipeline work or something.

Those are most likely Columbia Ground Squirrels, they populate the Rocky Mountains and Eastern Slopes. Different Species than Richardson's; same Family and Genus. Slightly larger than Richardson's, they make for easier targets.
