No it's a real squirrel

Istanbul


Cate told me this morning that I had to take the squirrel feeder off the tree because – clearly – the squirrels were not going to use it.

I begged for an extension as my confidence remained undimmed – and I just knew that our squirrels – while perhaps not being intellectually gifted – were going to stumble across it sooner or later.

I was rewarded an hour or so later by the sight of a squirrel sitting on the feeder eating the corn. Bless his/her little heart. I took a (very bad) photo of this happy event and sent it to Cate.

She says it is a set up and that I have put a stuffed squirrel on the feeder and taken a blurry photo to attempt to mislead her. So I am eagerly awaiting the next visit. 

I wonder where she thinks I would get a stuffed squirrel.

Amazon of course. $9.17 plus tax.
