A New Visitor

Look who was visiting our bird feeder this morning:




He was driving the cats nuts as he sat there eating the bird seed. Finally a gang of doves came along and forced him out. He's the first squirrel we've seen in the 10 years we've been here.

That is a humongous squirrel. In another 10 years, he'll be big enough to whack you over the head and steal your camera.

Cute! I LOVE our squirrels. We have 3 that come every day now because we leave out corn cobs and peanuts. It was exciting as we'd never had squirrels before either. We live in a 'new' neighborhood and it's only now 10 years later that the trees are somewhat large enough to attract them. Exciting!

That must have been some gang of doves to run out that ginormous squirrel.

Look at all that snow! It's in the 70's here today . . . but I'm not gloating or anything. I think I'd like a little snow . . . well can it snow at 70 degrees? I don't like cold weather.

*SIGH*

Life is so complex, LOL.

We have a squirrel who lives in the scrubby trees in the back. Blondie would love to feed him, but last year the birds ate us out of house and home. So far the squirrel hasn't come up to the bird feeders. I'm glad. I'm a little bit afraid of squirrels.
