BAD Squirrel!

Well, we've been blaming it on the Robin's...

But this morning we caught him in the act!


On the upper left corner of this picture you can see who's been munching on our veggies!

I've been scratching my head over the missing flower blooms, cucumbers, and baby tomatoes...
Thank goodness he doesn't like hot peppers and Bell peppers! We've been finding ACORNS in our yard. We don't have an acorn tree.

It brought to mind some things I've been reading on the web --- LARGE amounts of acorns, nuts, etc., is a sign of a SEVERE WINTER to come.

The Farmer's Almanac predicts a ROUGH WINTER this year...

I'm going to HOPE for a GOLDILOCKS winter...

This summer it was too hot, and I hope this winter isn't too cold!

Call your local county extension office and they will loan you a box trap for catching your critter.

I'm a bit concerned about the squirrels when Jo and Matt plant a garden in the back yard. We have more squirrels here then what's down on the farm. Maybe it's time to start eating them :)
