Wildlife in the Suburbs :)

We're suckers for feeding the birds, squirrels and other wildlife in our neighborhood. On a tree by the driveway we have a squirrel cafe where the little critters can dine on corn we buy for them.  Here are a couple little guys chowing down.  I was hoping to get better pictures but they were skittish when they saw me with the camera.  The one on your right is a tiny thing.  So here they are:
Here is an overall view of the cafe.
Sorry about the junkyard-like house in the background.  This is where the neighborhood paparazzi lives.  He started taking pictures of our home and visitors again today.  He also called the police because one guest had partially blocked the sidewalk with his vehicle.  I did mention to the police officer that the car next to the red one has expired tags.  I'm really tired of this guy!

  1. It is so sad when you have to put up with stupid busy body neighbors, I have had my share myself, I don't even bother trying to make nice anymore I just stick to myself and don't even try to carry on a conversation with any of them, we have two neighbors but that is enough for me lol I loved looking at the pics of the squirrels, I gave corn like that once the the squirrels but we don't anymore because they just go through it so fast, we live in the woods and their are wayyyyy too many of them out there to feed LOL I hope you have a good week. :o)

  2. Our squirrels are little piglets too! They eat their corn and the seed we put out for the birds not to mention the stale bread I throw out for them. I don't know what it is with this guy. Our house pretty much faces his and it is the only one he has a head on view of. We really have some great neighbors but this guy has started acting very strangely since the summer. The police were amazed that this guy had so many pictures of our house on his camera and said they had more important things to handle and that we should just ignore the guy. I doubt my neighbor will see my blog but if he does maybe he'll settle down.
