However, when I lived in Austria, I missed our "friend" who used to bunk with our friends and he'd eat with us. He was such a delight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31803386.post-17669098256493318072009-08-10T22:46:00.167+02:002009-08-10T22:46:00.167+02:00The Pill for gray squirrels sounds like a great id...The Pill for gray squirrels sounds like a great idea! I have several grays in my garden and they are no trouble (except for their reforestation of oaks project, to which they devote great energy).<br /><br />Good news--daffodil bulbs are poisonous, so you will not lose any! Hope you have a drill with special bit for planting 200.

Kind of really strange too since they are cousins. I guess that is what Darwin's survival of the fittest does for nature. Cute little buggers all but I'd as soon see them all go as stay. My dogs go 'nuts' around them.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31803386.post-66388830095947510232009-08-10T00:52:52.023+02:002009-08-10T00:52:52.023+02:00Like you I have a love/hate relationship with squi...Like you I have a love/hate relationship with squirrels. I hate the way they pig out on the bird food and then dig holes in the lawn or eat my plants. But I do love watching their acrobatics.
