Since this morning’s post was about death and ridding our property of an unwanted visitor (sayonara Mr. Rat!)…. let’s pivot to some welcome visitors this afternoon.

Lots of people dislike grey squirrels as they raid bird feeders and eat most of the seed.
.

.
But at Casa River we applaud their bravery at crossing the wide open expanse of back lawn and let them enjoy the buffet.

Caution is key as there are numerous birds of prey patrolling the neighborhood.
.

.
Greys are ever vigilant.
.

.
But once the coast is clear?

Squirrelly smiles.

I doubt even the biggest bird of prey could haul away that hefty, well fed grey. That dude looks like he’s about 30 lbs…lol.

I have seen eagles and owls fly away with cats, dogs, and rabbits of many sizes. It doesn’t take that much. What happens once they set them down I have no idea, but seldom do any return. Squirrels would be but a morsel for them.

I don’t think they care for her. She darts in and out of the feeding area too often.
