The recent Blizzard left so much snow on the ground for such an extended period of time, that the squirrels were beginning to look thin and desperate. Larry threw a few peanuts out the back door and made himself a new friend. This squirrel now comes to the back door daily to get his peanuts. He was not afraid of us sitting inside watching him and he retrieved about 10 peanuts, one at a time. Some he nibbled up in a tree and others he took to a near-by hiding place. I'm not sure how much longer we want to keep feeding him, especially when I realized that there were actually two squirrels coming onto the deck!
