It's so sad when you see an innocent guy getting hooked on the hard stuff.
That blue box is actually there for the birds. The contents? Sunflower seeds.
The furry sitting right in the center of the seeds is one of our newly released squirrels. He was used to eating vegies and greens and acorns...the food of squirrel champions. Until now.
So what's wrong with sunflower seeds, you ask?
Well, they contain some stuff that's not so good for squirrels. But that doesn't stop them from wanting it.
Okay, I'll admit it...we gave them some seed when they were younger. We thought it was okay. But they got kind of...well...mean and loopy.
Yes, the cold, hard truth is that they were...intoxicated.
So we stopped giving the seed and got them into a program. I'm happy to say that, in their 4 months of life, they've been clean for 30 days!
Until this guy found his way to this den of iniquity.
I found him sitting in the box in the morning...and then almost stretched out laying in it around noon. He didn't even go home for a nap...how embarrassing. And here he is just before dark.
He knows what he's done is wrong. You can see it all over his face. You can almost hear him saying "Uh-oh! I'm busted!"
But it's okay. We still love him!
