Another squirrel

Dang critter never was shy about letting me know when he was hungry.

Cool! I've had a couple at my feet but never on me. As a kid had neighbors that had a pair beat on their door to inform them food was in short supply.

I have hunted, shot, and eaten tree rats but never in a residential setting. Good pseudo-pets. Crafty critters.

It's all good until the bastards wipe out you're sweet corn.

I liked this little guy. I always kept a sack of cracked pecans for him. Whenever I saw him in the back yard I would take a handful and he would climb up my leg and sit in my lap munching pecans while I scratched his ears. One of the few things I miss about leaving Texas.

My brother had a squirrel that used to come to him. He would feed it peanuts and other stuff. They are smart animals.

Last week cutting the grass I seen the most green pecans on the ground I ever seen. Last years crop that the squirrels forgot where the burried them are now 5 foot tall. I'd like the pecan trees a lot better if I was on a piece of land not a city lot!

I hear that, dig and gift them out. Others will grow the trees. We pay for the pecans here and not cheap. Ever... Good, healthy food. My latest doc, not a nut is a believer in natural goods. Nuts and berries. Recommended.
