Squirrel!

There once was a cheeky squirrel

who was driving my poor dog mad

.

He mocked and he laughed and he chortled

Oh! He was such a cad.

He used diabolic acrobatics

To show me his tummy bare

Hanging about on the feeder

He masticated without a care.

And yet he is saved from my revenge

By a fact of no dispute

Thief and bandit he may be

But aw look, he’s just so cute!

Thank you!

From Heron in…

I surely will know

That sometimes herons stay

Even where there is snow!

Strange but cool.

Please excuse the fuzziness, I was hiding, albeit badly, behind some reeds.

Judging by the look on his face in the last photo, he found me.

What a glare!

So I guess I’m “It”.

Hide!
