Actually, it really isn’t a battle, as I have several old colanders out in the yard  that I fill with food for the squirrels.  I just wish they would stay off the bird feeders.

I was out walking in the snow when I spotted this cutie in my colander.

He had his face buried in the seed.  It took him a few minutes to realize I was watching him.

Imagine the squirrel voice…

Oh crap she saw me!  Maybe I should run.

If I’m very still, maybe she will go away.

If I squint my eyes, nope she is still there.

Oh well, I think I’ll just go ahead and eat a little.

What do you mean I’ve got a piece of food on the end of my nose?

Look at me I can do push-ups.

Profiling…

Lately I’ve neglected my blog and yours too.

Life has been coming at me fast and furiously, leaving me feeling a little squirrely.

More winter weather is heading our way tomorrow.

Here at Coral Cottage we are anxiously awaiting the spring thaw.

 How about y’all?

See you later,

Bye!

    1. Staci – I hope you did get a break from this storm, it is still coming down here. I’ve put lots of seed out to keep the birds and squirrels happy – and me too.

    What is in the “kibble” you feed the squirrels. Great squirrel photos and I enjoyed the new “banner” photos you put up.

    1. Hi Miss Linda – Thank you for commenting on the new banner, until the next one. I put out regular birdseed with old bread, nuts, and fruits – whatever I have leftover that is a little stale and safe for them to enjoy. They don’t complain, so I guess they are satisfied. 🙂

    1. Glad you got a little tickle in your tummy. Those furry rodents make me smile. Snow is here with bitter cold, and supposedly, more on the way in a few days. 😦
