A few weeks ago I switched from the normal wild bird seed mix I normally buy (which the birds go hog wild over), to just plain black sunflower seeds. I have noticed that hardly any of our birds have been coming by, but our seed would be gone every night. We thought that we just happened to miss the birds, but I think our cat Gracie has been keeping the birds away as she now likes to "bird watch" right under the feeders.So, yesterday, was a lousy day. Gray and damp and just a blah day. I happened to be looking out the window at the feeders as I saw a male and female cardinal. They they flew away suddenly. Knowing that the cat was in the house sleeping, this is the little visitor that we got.
The little bugger was holding on by just his tail like an opossum. The feeder was almost full when he started too. He is going to be one fat little squirrel.
The mess he left me.

Tomorrow is "Take Your Child to Work Day" at CBD. Even though I work the evening shift, I am still able to take Matt. He will only be there for a few hours as I work until closing at 11pm est. He is so excited. This is not his first time coming to CBD, but it is the first time he has participated in this special day. I'll be taking photo's of him there, and I am sure he will be taking some of me working. LOL.
