See how I can multi-task? I can chew a sunflower seed while tossing the shell away.
Oh, darn it all. There’s Emma. “Hey! What’re YOU doing here? Can’t a squirrel eat breakfast in peace?”
See how I did that? I told her! Cool, eh?
Uh-oh! What if she gets out of the backyard? Sometimes the people let her into the front.
I think … yup … it’s time … to RUN!
I bet I could catch you! I can jump, you know.
Not this high, you can’t. Nyah-na-na-naa-na!
Heeheeheeheeheeeeeee!

I agree, Ribana. These squirrels like living around here, and I hope they have enough sense to keep away from Emma.

Haha, Jill! You must have had a terrible time with those squirrels in your attic. Were they the big gray or black squirrels or these little red ones?

That is a different type for sure. Those gray squirrels kill my little red squirrels and are driving their numbers down. The grays are not my favourites either.

I wasn’t sure the young ones would stay around. Some have wandered off but Lincoln and one of the smaller ones are still here.

My dad says they are rodents who get in the house and chews wires so we encourages our dog to go after them. 😂 she hasn’t caught one yet, however. She also hasn’t caught the bunnies she chases.

Ours haven’t come near the house. They have a safe place in the woodshed and lots of fir trees, but each place is different. If your dog catches one, please don’t tell me. Rabbits are a different story….

Hehehe. This is so cute. And so true. I think squirrels taunt and tease on purpose. Or maybe it’s just that they are always busy telling somebody off! In this case, Emma.
