squirrel vs. stanley

Stanley told me he took the mesh off the hole the squirrel had been using to store nuts in. Turns out she was also storing her babies there. Stanley looked up and saw one of them and quickly took the mesh off, then watched as Mama Rodent transported the babies, one-by-one, to the nest up in the Austree. They weren’t tiny babies, Stanley said, but definitely not nearly adult size. He said he felt just awful about it and was glad to see all four of them were alive and doing fine.

I guess that explains the squirrel’s persistence in trying to get the mesh off. And I’m glad Stanley noticed what was going on.
