They're not only into nuts!
Sep. 7th, 2006 11:24 pmAs seen just now on the KARE11 (nbc) news...
Flags put near graves in a cemetary in Eau Claire, WI have been disappearing by the dozens, and no one had any idea who might be stealing them...until a groundskeeper saw faded fabric high-up in a tree, which turned out to be a tattered flag. SQUIRRELS have been taking the flags and using them for nest material.
BWAHAHA! Oh my god, so glad I happened to catch that!
In other news, got to leave lake class (I'm calling limnology that from now on) early since she didn't make us stay after doing our first lab. I've done about 10 pages of reading (all in that book) so far, but am supposed to read one of my four books for Saturday's class by Saturday...we'll see. Hope it isn't too boring!
I've got a growing feeling that something, or LOTS of somethings, are creeping up on me. I can think of several possibilities, but this is more like a *feeling* that...just, something bad is coming. No, please. :/

Date: 2006-09-08 05:35 am (UTC)That squirrel story is so cute....just...I'm slighly awed, even though city animals can be practically domestic, because I've never had a wild animal eat from my hand before. Oh wait, unless you count the couple of loose donkeys in South Dakota (that had to have belonged to someone--who ever heard of wild donkeys in South Dakota?!) who ate candy out of our hands.
Not much wildlife in LA either. I got excited when I saw a non-sea gull-or-crow bird. Even squirrels are less-common there, though the ones that *are* there have tan tummies rather than white, and are pretty cute.

Does that sound cool?
You'd have to send me your address though...(since we ARE dating, you shouldn't be too squicked out at that? ;P)
*sigh* I'm supossed to send 'em to
Thanks fer liking my Shower!House icon. It's teeny, but it's the first one that I made like, all by myself.
Oh, and thanks for liking my squirrel story. I really love it, it's a nice memory.
