Tree Rat Cookout

We have a big pine tree right next to the deck, and man do the tree rats love to make a mess when they eat Pine Cone on the Cob

Little bastards

We hates them.

    I assume that plinking is frowned upon in your neighborhood? Shame really.
    We have a fair number of tree rats here too, but they don’t make too much of a mess (except leaving half-eaten plums and cherries on the fence to rot). But what I REALLY want to plink is the friggin’ crows.
    But plinking is frowned upon in my neighborhood too.

    I have the same tree rat problem Bingley. Damn near choked off my mower today running over the left overs from their dinner this week.

    Well, NJ has the problem solved:

    I’m actually rather fond of the little buggers myself and can’t imagine eating a rodent, but… well… to each his own, I guess.

    ..the feds thought they found lead in a dead squirrel.
    Like, schmaybe from the birdshot that killed the bugger?
    “lead in the dead squirrel” has a nice ring to it!
    The Environmental Protection Agency said a blender used to process the squirrel’s tissue samples was defective – and that the lead believed to be in the squirrel actually came from a part of the blender.
    where’s Ron Popeil when we need him? It’s time for the Squirrel-O-Matic!
    What a great state we have here!
