Squirrel Chat

I was getting in my car, going back to work after lunch. I look up and see a squirrel snatch an ear of corn from my neighbor's gourd, pumpkin, corn Halloween yard display and carry the whole freaking ear in his mouth across the street. Big pig.

You should have shot it or run it over and then picked up the squirrel gut splattered corn and put it back.

Do you get the red ones or the common or garden grey ones like we get?

You people are just mean. If you leave out food decorations, what do you expect critters to do?

Ha, Emma. My mother put out a cute display like that one fall in a mini wheelbarrow on her front porch. When I was there at the holidays, I woke up to hear strange chewing noises outside the window. I looked out and a squirrel was in the wheelbarrow eating one of the ears of corn. They eventually ate pretty much the whole display.

Western Massachusetts has black squirrels...some people call them "squiggers" When I first heard that I admit to laughing.

Squirrels are God's creatures as much as we are. That being said, my best friend has left to go squirrel hunting, and I did wish him luck. Wish I'd had the opportunity to bend his sights, tho.
