So the squirrels face is saying, "Oh !#!" and Diesel scrunches his face and does that clueless Scooby Doo "HUH!?"ĭiesel leaps, it's almost like I am retelling this to you and in my mind he is running in slow motion but really it lasted all of a staggering 2.5 seconds. No lie, this actually happened, coffee as my witness!!ĭiesels butt scratching had him off guard and it wasn't until the intruding squirrel had gotten within a few feet of Diesel did he awaken from his daydreamy butt-scratching state to even notice the squirrel was just three feet away. Diesel was pretty oblivious to the squirrel, I had found "the best scratch spot" in doggie terms. I had my coffee mug in one hand, and was giving doggie scratches with the other. The squirrel must slowly and stealthily creep into the lawn, careful not to move even a single fallen leaf, as its disturbance may indicate signs of an intruder and the sheriff is but only a few feet away.Ĭoffee and me are hanging out in the gardens watching this happen from the love seat. It goes on all year round, but this time of year, its for survival. Over time this has turned into a game between the squirrels being bandits, and the mean old sheriff driving the mad gunmen outta his town! Diesel is protective of the yard, denying access to all trespassing squirrels. About this time of year, pickings are slim. The squirrels have been foraging for acorns and nuts. I'm sitting outside with a mug of coffee, and it's February in SC.
