12.05.07: Squirrel Talk
|
 I am a huge animal lover. I try to take care of my fine feathered and furred friends as much as I can by giving them plenty of tasty treats especially during the winter months. I enjoy watching them come up to the window and eat their seeds and nuts. One day I put a piece of pear out on the porch. I thought some bird would enjoy it but instead I caught a squirrel trying it out. I had no idea they liked fruit. But I'm glad they do. I have some mushy apples I'd like to get rid of. They can share with the birds.
Can you believe I actually bought a bag of mixed nuts to share with the squirrels for Christmas? I tried an experiment. I placed one of each kind of nut out on the porch where the squirrels come to find food. An almond, walnut, peanut, brazil nut and pecan. I wanted to see which one they would go for first. Wanna take a guess? It was the peanut.
Yes, I get pleasure out of sharing the gift of food with those who need it over the holidays. But sometimes the animals need a little help too. I like to do what I can.
