Resident Squirrel Update


I try to keep Squirrel's diet limited to stale bread and mixed nuts, but I've recently broadened that menu with Craisins, corn, and pie crust. [Note: he will not eat Craisins.] The other day Levi and I witnessed him ravaging a Burger King fry bag. We found it sad that he didn't notice how the lone fry [remember that old Western?] inside could be easily accessed via the large opening at the top of the pouch. But I've heard this through-the-bag technique is also how Laura Ingraham consumes her fast food, so maybe it's just that Squirrel's a Conservative.

Below is Squirrel, who joined us on the porch the other night during dinner time, sans side dish. Not only do these photograph exhibit the redundancy of corn holders, but I believe there is also evidence in them of Squirrel's allegiance to the dark side.
