"Squirrel News"

Being an avid fan of squirrels, (I can't imagine why) in the last week I have had two encounters with them that I would like to share with you, I managed to catch them both on camera. This first one is "truly" our mascot, it likes to sit on top of the utility pole just outside of our front door. I first realized it sat up there when I went to put mail in our mailbox one morning. I kept hearing this "crunch,crunch, crunch" and looked around to see where it was coming from. I finally looked up and there it was on top of the pole having a snack. I quickly ran and got the camera and it obliged me by sitting there long enough to take a picture. We have yet to name our mascot but it visits on a regular basis.

 My second encounter was the same day, I was sitting out on my patio and I heard that familiar "crunch, crunch, crunch", I looked up on my neighbor's roof and what did I see but these two baby squirrels enjoying a little snack. So once again I quickly ran for the camera and snapped their picture. I took the camera back  in the house and when I got back outside I looked up and to my surprise there where now a total of "four" baby squirrels on the roof. I ran for the camera again but was not able to get a clear picture of all four of them. Needless to say they have been quite a source of entertainment.

Just thought I would add, the neighbor is not pleased that he has

a family of squirrels nesting under his porch roof!

Hope you enjoy my "squirrel news"
