Squirrel Patrol Continued…

Last time I left you in the middle of our evening squirrel patrol route, so let's get going and finish up the rest of it, Ok! Hope you are having fun!

We had made it to the ditch where there are some MAJOR squirrel condos that we have cleaned out with Mango’s help. We always double check them anyway to make sure no new rodent terrorists have decided to move back into them.

The ditch is pretty big, so we usually split up and do some recon, always ready to do backup if someone finds something and needs help.

After thoroughly checking the south end of the ditch, there is the hill…

Then back we come to check the north end of the ditch in the side pasture...

After that, we go through the fence into the front pasture and check the ditch and bushes there. By that time, it is starting to get dark, and Mom says we have to go in (coyotes, you know). Mama OC is pretty tired by then, so we slowly come in.

We do a last quick check of the tack room… never can tell if a fuzzie has come in from the other end while we were out in the field. Last time, we found a whole bunch of beetles… THAT was weird!

We come on in, get a drink, and flop in the front room for several minutes of panting.

This is our evening routine to be sure that the squirrel population keeps it’s distance! Hope you had a good time joining us for Squirrel Patrol.
