squirrel-proof

As a result of our focus on feeding the birds this week, my head is full of birds and squirrels and deer. Hence, a poem…..

~

~

squirrel-proof

~

plan for success

buy a feeder, smarter

than any squirrel

~

fill the feeder

laughing

all the way

~

drive into town

to buy more birdseed

confident, smug

~

left turn

into the driveway

shadow 

~

white tail

brown thighs vanish

around the corner

~

feeder empty

~

~

Photos are from years past. We don’t have much snow here in southern New Brunswick!!!!!

~

All my best!

Jane (a.k.a. Alexandra)
