We noticed that the bird feeders were emptying fast. Then one day as I happened to look out the window, I saw a squirrel sitting atop one of the feeders that Mark hung from a light gauge wire to prevent the squirrels from robbing the feeders. How did the squirrel get atop the feeder?
Then as my young friend, Lucas, and I were sitting at the french doors watching the birds together, we witnessed the squirrel walking out onto a very thin branch from which he jumped onto the high wire, turned upside down and hand over hand climbed to the feeder. See the pictures below:
The squirrel just landed on the wire after jumping from the tree |
Here is the acrobat doing the upside down hand over hand approach to the bird feeder |
There he goes --- down to the feeder Success! Until I opened the door and scared him off. |
There is a boutique in downtown Burbank, CA called SkyBluePink. When I saw this sunset, I thought, sky blue pink! It was spectacular in person. Wish you were here. |

The question is, how do THEY define 'tiny'?

What great pictures! And yes, life is grand. Your little friend Lucas looks like good company. :)
A tiny bit of chocolate? Please. There is no such thing!

Happy Holidays,
