One Survivor? |
We had been wondering why we hadn't seen any squirrels this Spring; we saw Big Mama out under the feeder in February, which usually means she's raising another brood, but since then we had not seen any of them until we saw this one under the bird feeder. We thought that the snake had wiped them all out, but it looks like at least one escaped.
These varmints are so prolific that even if a nest is wiped out, others soon move into the vacant burrow and set up housekeeping. And soon they're all over the place again, eating everything they can reach.
This one looks pretty young, but at least he now knows where the free birdseed buffet is to be found.
Just stay away from the tomatoes and the blueberries.
