Hmmm - the squirrels here are storing stuff for the winter in between my roof and ceiling, I'm sure. They're not even paying rent, the scoundrels.

squirrels here have towork when the banging and noise ends. I think they will be getting their walnuts though.

I keep hearing noises that sounds like maybe a squirrel has gotten between the walls of this place and is storing walnuts there.  I know they do things like that.  It has happened to me before.

You have an active group of squirrels there. How fun! Here we haven't seen any in a while. How clever to tell their stories.

I guess you are well acquainted with guys now. They keep hopping through my mind.

Sadly I cannot remember their names I kind of squirreled it away.

Re: Goldiec

The thing that amazes me about squirrels and their storage habits is that they seem to remember where they hid the tasty bits. Or maybe they just do it the same way every autumn, so that when they go foraging later, it's all part of an established pattern.

Good Morning

Pat, I know the Backyard squirrels are busy getting ready for winter.  It's amazing the places they find to hide their food.  Our squirrels have been busy taking all the nuts but I'm not sure where their hiding places are.  I know they have a smorgasbord for the long winter.  Our trees have had a lot of nuts this year.  I wish you could have seen the big pile at the bottom of one of our trees.  The squirrels worked all day on that pile and the next day they were all gone.  They will not go hungry this year.  I wonder if all the nuts mean it will be a bad winter?

Good morning

There is quite a bit going on in your neighborhood as far as the fur babies are concerned. It's great that Herb has a fluffy new tail. Squirrels tend to show off their backdoor fluff, at least mine do. Stay warm and have a great day!
