RE: Feeding during Lockdown

in OCD4 years ago

Good at least that the rain has stopped Hannes,

You won't believe how I had to chase that mom squirrel around this afternoon.
She went to the sunbird's nest and started stealing the white fluff in their nest. I could hear a little sunbird baby tweeting in the nest.
So I knew that the squirrel would return to get more fluff and as she came down from the tree I was waiting for her. She jumped back into the tree and tried to get down on the other side, but I was also there waiting for her.
She went back up and the two little sunbird parents were anxiously flying all around her.
Eventually I stepped back a bit and she rushed down in a hurry and as soon as she hit the ground I rushed at her.
She dashed off in a great hurry and she hasn't been back to the tree again.

Here she is with the stolen goods in the sunbird tree!

She stole so much fluff that she looks like Santa Claus!

Tomorrow morning, very early I will be waiting for her under the tree, but I don't think that she will return!

Cheers and thanks!

Oh, I would have loved to see that movie "The Giant and the Squirrel" 😁

Maybe you should have offered her some old cotton wool or so and you would have become friends. Now she will tell her children to take care of the giant in that garden ;)

But she looks so cool and she only wants to care for her own child 😉

Hahaha, you are so funny.
Guess what? She hasn't been back and Marian has put some cotton wool down in the front garden early this morning.
I rather hope that she will tell her children not to go near that tree lol.

Yes, she wants to care for her child, but she is killing someone else's child doing it.
So I will not let that happen lol.

Cheers and thanks!

She will tell her children not to go to this tree, because there's a big giant who is hungry and loves to eat squirrels 😁

So your wife has had the same idea as I had? Cool 🤗

It's good if you try to help both of them 😃

Hahaha, I hope that she will also tell them that if they behave , then they can come and get free nuts here in the garden lol.

Yeah, you and my wife are the brainy ones and I am just the squirrel chaser lol.

That's why I am trying to teach them fairness lol.

Cheers and thanks!

The Squirrel Chaser - cool title 😁

Yeah, if she knows you and your wife, and I bet she does, then she will certainly tell them about the nuts 😊


Cheers and !BEER

Hahaha, shhhhheesh Hannes. A squirrel might peep over my shoulder to see this and the title will be spread through the animal community lol.

The mother is Squirry's child from last season. She had four girls and two boys, so the other 3 girls are also somewhere with their babies. Soon we will have a menagerie of new young ones here lol.

Cheers and thanks!

Squirrels are cute anyway, but the little babies are adorable 🤗
Your wife might have to put some more cotton wool out for them 😊


Cheers and !BEER
