Squirrels are at it again...

Jul 24, 2012

Every year I seem to make it through a few small pickling cuke harvests...and then the squirrels catch on. Oddly enough they enjoy taunting me with cuke carcasses that they like to leave on my garden fence. Hopefully I'll get a few more before they do!

	They are sharing with you. They ate what they wanted and have left the rest for you.

	@gailsgarden:They are rascals! If only they would keep munching on the same cuke instead of going back for a fresh one.

	Oh no! If it makes you feel better, they torment me as well - they dig up my gardens and plant peanuts everywhere - I guess it's good to know that they like cukes, too - I can brace myself for the carnage that my come to my garden :)

	@SweetDomesticity...:That does make me feel a little better. That's odd that they plant peanuts everywhere...perhaps you can train them to plant your whole garden each spring! :-)

	Hmm...we seem to have our share of squirrels but they haven't ever touched our cucumbers. Maybe yours have a more domesticated palate than ours! :)
