RE: Flying Squirrel

I love this @castleberry the colour and the subject matter.

I have a love hate with squirrels. The damage they've done to things round here, they get into walls and sneak into sail lofts in the boat house and shred old letters from long dead ancestors or nibble up my not very well stored art supplies (reminding me that casein IS a diary prodcut of sorts)

But, I also sort of love their cheeky ways. We have one around here who comes to our day and demands food. It makes no sense chasing him off, he just looks at us as if WE'RE mad and so you give him break or some chicken feed , but I also give him the 'eye' too when he heads to the bird feeder.

yes Squirrels, probably so like humans that we care to believe. Really wonderful.

Sort:  

I am glad you liked the art and the subject. The squirrel we had that was in the video of me feeding it... eventually, ended up eating a large hole in one of the patio chairs. It was coming and taking the stuffing out of the chair for a nest i presume.

They have also shredded the patio ground cover fabric for the same purposes. They are very lovable yet very destructive. So, i do understand what you mean. It's probably best they don't navigate the skies from the backs of giant butterflies or else there would be no bird feeder safe. hahaha
Cheers
