Eat Them All

 

The squirrels are in a frenzy of eating trying to devour all the Maple keys that seem to be at their prime. There were 3 squirrels in the rather small tree, each with their own territory that they were defending.

The squirrels are trying to fatten up for the lean times to come this winter when food is in short supply. Maple seeds help.

What a delightful snapshot of nature's hustle and bustle! The image of squirrels energetically feasting on Maple keys is both entertaining and endearing. It’s fascinating to observe how each squirrel claims its territory, showcasing their unique personalities and behaviors. This scene beautifully highlights the vibrant life that surrounds us, especially during the changing seasons. Thanks for sharing this fun moment in the critter world—it's a wonderful reminder of the simple joys found in nature!

Wonderful. While we have our possums, they are nocturnal, so you have to find them in the dark, which you can at times.
