Yesterday morning I was awakened (awoke?) by a bloodcurdling scream from downstairs where I thought my sister was being brutally murdered. So I run to the top of the stairs and she is screaming and pointing "SQUIRREL!" and there was a squirrel panicking and running all over our dining room...it was weird. He eventually dove under the couch (after trying to get out of all the screened windows and launching himself hedlong into the glass door.). Where he remained trying to poke his out out for about half an hour...I caught the little monster on film...
My mom threw a corn muffin out the door and after a lot of waiting she stood on the side of the room away from the door and made noise until he escaped. He ran way. We closed the door and five minutes later, he came back and stole the corn muffin!!! This is a squirrel unafraid of people. But we coudln't figure out how he got in....until we went to check Tarahs room...
He had chewed a hole in the screen!
and broken her guitar lamp!
She then yelled at me to stop taking pictures like a CSI. So I did. But there was no food in her room and NO reason for the squirrel to go to the trouble of chewing through her screen...weird.
I caught him hanging around the glass doors at the front...looking for away to get in..he's not afriad of people either...I think Dad or Craig may be going on a hunt this evening....
yipes! The joy of living in the country!
