    Handee - concerning your comment ... I have no response to that.
    You say "lazy". I say , "resourceful".

    Ever seen a wild squirrel give a High Five?



    At least acorns are easy to clean out. My work is surrounded by pive trees, so I have pine needles and sap to deal with year'round. *grumble grumble*

    I've still got a plop of pine sap on the TLC from 10 years ago. Hard as a rock & no way to get it off without taking paint wit it.

    Ldub - I agree. Lazy.

    Here's a pic of one that adopted us last Easter.

    They made us turn him into a shelter though. We only had him for a few days.

    Squirrel had a nasty abdominal wound + daughter (the one in the pic) works at a vet + State laws = squirrel had to find a new home.

    Ash actually visited him a few times & he fully recovered and was released to the wild (of course he still hangs around the reserve - he's just not caged).

    Lazy arse squirrel.
