Happy Birthday Kathi

Happy birthday my little sunflower.

Squirrel madness I tell you.
TRooper has been living on the porch. ..But she is not happy about it. She wants back IN the house.

Even when we close the door… Do you notice anything strange about this picture?? We have a peeping squirrel!

Her antics lately! K gave her a nut.. And she promptly ran over to a potted plant and buried it! Yesterday a friend of Kathi’s came over and the squirrel ran up her leg and sat on her shoulder! Fortunately the friend wasn’t skittish and had known about the squirrel. But it was still a surprise.

I wish I had a video or even picture of the squirrel running down the sidewalk to follow Kathi to the car. It’s like she knows K is leaving and is saying, “Oh no you don’t”! K has to lock it in the cage to get away sometimes. Seriously!

Today was the first day that the squirrel left the porch for a while. It disappeared for most of the day. K thought it might have decided to fly the coop.. But she came back at feeding time.
That said.. I have a feeling she is not going to be around for too much longer. I think she is ready to go out on her own.

Here is a great video of TRooper trying to find a way back into the house… Crawling all over our front door screen. (1.7mb QuickTime file)
