There are crazy squirrels at my bird feeder again. They came to eat the delicious berries off the mulberry bushes and noticed the feeder. After that it was only a matter of time before they noticed me, and more importantly my cats in the window. Now, I don't know what it is about squirrels that makes them so bold when they know you're behind glass, but every time one realizes that the cats can't get it, the squirrel has to flaunt it. This of course means getting face to face the cats, who are scrambling on top of each other to try to get the best view, and eventually smack into the window in vein.

This particular squirrel seemed extra bold, bugging the cats on his first day. And while reluctant to tackle the actual feeder, settling for the seed on the ground, it had no qualms about about diving head first into the window on the other side of the cat's face. I think they do it for fun, because I can't think of another reason why. I hear other people speak of crazy squirrels taunting their cats too, so maybe it's like their favorite pass time. Who knows?


Also I'm moving to the city where the main campus of the University is. It's only like 30-40 miles away, but it means I'll be moving out of a sub-tropical climate and into a temperate climate Also it's a much nicer city. We start looking at houses next week.
