Chubby Visitor .....

   Caught this little chubby squirrel eating hickory nuts. He sat there a long time enjoying his snacks.
 He threw his shells on the porch though. I better get him a waste can. Some times his friends and family are with him. We have quiet a few squirrels here. Not counting Teddy. LOL.
 Here's a picture of the little wheel barrow . I finally did get it painted. Put these potted impatiens , along with some pine cones, in it for now. What with the chilly days and all the rain we have had the past week...I still do not have things on the porch like I really want them. Just a thing here and there for the time being.
  Today the sun is out and it promises to be a great day. Enjoy it my friends, we never know what the afternoon will bring.  xo

      Some times, I scare him as I open the door and some times he scares me. LOL Yes, it only took me forever to paint that tiny wheel barrow. Gaa. Slow in my old age. Blessings, xoxo,Susie

    My first thought was how rude to call a visitor "chubby", but that little squirrel definitely fits the description.

      Oh I would have to admit to being chubby myself, before I could call someone else that.LOL The squirrels get the hickory nuts, corn and even some of the birds' seeds. They must be hungry . Hope your day is wonderful,xoxo,Susie

      Judy, Squirrels can be a pest...but worse than that are the chipmunks...and look how cute they are. :):) That would be a cute fairy garden container. xoxo,Susie

    I love these pictures, Susie. Nature makes me smile every time. That must have been a sight seeing him on your porch. Your home is surrounded by green and groomed lawns, how pretty.

    Yeah this passed Saturday was like that. It rained sheets until about noon then the clouds went away and it was a gorgeous day.
    I say again what a beautiful area you live in.
