Squirrel Appreciation Day: January 21, 2019. Mark your calendars! Disgruntled says that it is a Federal legal holiday.

But he's confused: How to show appreciation? Shoot and eat them or feed them?


Thank you, everybody, for wishing me a hap-hap-happy birthday.

Here in NH last year we celebrated by running HUNDREDS of them over!

Apparently there was some kind of lack of food for them in this area and it made them delirious and they would run onto the highway and get run over.

I counted over 100 dead squirrels on 1 stretch of highway less than 1/2 mile long last summer...gross!

There was a definite shortage of food for the squirrels here in Dutchess County NY as well. Much of my time spent in the woods this fall witnessed many of them running long distances from the corn fields with full ears of corn! Couldn't believe what I was seeing the first time I saw it! LOL

I live at the top of a big hill about 1/2 mile from the downtown.

We used to get a lot of squirrels at the birdfeeders. I often wondered how we managed to have so many. Then, one sunny morning while driving down the hill to work, I see all of these squirrels hopping up the hill, apparently making their way to my feeders.

With the window all the way up, press and hold the button and bring the window all the way down. Then press/pull and hold the button and bring it all the way up. That should reset it
