I just love having my window shades open. Natural light coming in to the house gives me such energy and I love looking outside at all the flowers on my deck. My kitchen table faces a large picture window that looks upon my crepe myrtle, mandevilla and strawberry plants. So as I was feeding Cody in the kitchen, I just happen to look up and I saw a squirel jump from my crepe myrtle to the railing of my deck. He quickly ran toward the mandevilla and jumped down to my poor unsuspecting strawberry plant. He then somehow plucked the biggest, brightest and I'm sure juiciest strawberry from my plant and proceeded to jump back up onto the railing. He then plopped his butt down and with his fuzzy little tail waving back and forth, held that strawberry in his tiny little hands as he ate it, bite by bite. AHHHHHH!!!!!
I ran to my camera bag, grabbed it and quickly changed the lens to SUPER ZOOM!!! I opened my back patio door, walked on my patio and said DROP IT! Did he? No. So I took a photo of him chowing down on my strawberry. Eventually throwing it down as I got closer. Little stinker. And to think, I actually wondered why none of my strawberries were growing this year. Mr. Squirel here found a gold mine.
