Lunch break

Lots of squirrels in the neighborhood where we live. And a lot of people feed them. They've got it made; none of them have to go through what these 2 squirrels did to get a little lunch:

That's a delightful squirrel photo! Yes, sounds like life is much easier for this squirrel than those in the very funny video. I saw three squirrels chasing each other around this morning on my walk to the carpool. I had to laugh.

Thanks Katie. Squirrels are so funny to watch. There was one that frequented our house for a while, even eating the small pumpkins I'd set out on the steps for Fall decoration. Last week as we came back from a walk, he was lying across the peak of the roof like he was sunbathing!

We have a lot of squirrels in our neighborhood. I don't think anyone feeds them, although there are a lot of domestic pets and easy access to pet food. John's office is at the front of the house and he says the squirrels have been especially active lately. The weather? School's out? Who knows why? I hope no one's giving them chocolate bars.

Hi Petrea, Yes, maybe it is the weather. Maybe someone's feeding them espresso beans :)
