Squirrels going nuts ... and three of my bad habits: smoking, drinking bourbon straight up, and feeding rodents.:D

Spooky!

Re: Today in pictures
 

We don't have, as far as I know any black squirrels in this area just the grey ones.

Re: Today in pictures
 

The red squirrels turn really dark in winter .

Re: Today in pictures
 

Most of ours are black ... but there are some greys ... one in particular, Graymalkin, is particularly friendly. No reds in this area, and few Chipmunks. We have a fairly large feral cat colony around here, and that probably accounts for many losses in the smaller critter community. I suspect that many of you animal lovers will appreciate this:

Re: Today in pictures
 

As I cannot adopt one of these lovely kitties I have made a donation instead.....I know it will help the good deeds continue for our furry friends.

Today was intended to be a short walk, the fact I took my camera meant it would never happen, a bit of a mooch around the canal at Altham.

Re: Today in pictures
 

God luv ya, dahlin' ... it will help the good work these guys are doing ... it's a great idea: trap the ferals, take them to a vet, have them neutered, give them their shots, release them back into their colonies, and keep kittens for adoption. Organizations like this, manned by volunteers and funded by donations do fantastic work. Here's another one:

Re: Today in pictures
 

Thank you Eric.
When I retired the trust wanted to give me a gift.
They gave me a list of traders who I could visit to choose something lovely.
I told them that I would prefer whatever money they wanted to spend to be given to a local lady who takes care of unwanted cats and kittens.
They tried to dissuade me, asking me if I would not like something to remember the trust
by.
I told them that the best gift they could give me was to know that some fur babies were being looked after rather than put to sleep.
I have enough memories of my working life.
I could very very easily become that mad old lady in the neighbourhood who feeds and nurtures cats.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I always said that if I came into a large sum of money I would head for the Spanish coast with a vet and a team to treat, vaccinate and neuter the cat population in that area.
Himself would open a donkey sanctuary.......so come that big Lotto win.....the money is spoken for.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I can go with that. :)
