Wow! Congrats! Thanks for sharing this... making me virtually delight in squirrels... since I haven't seen one yet in its natural habitat (except in the zoo once). God bless you.

The saga of their industrious endeavor for a rainy day. They are far sighted creatures, so smart... never nut-cases :) Beautifully summed up haiku, harry ! Best of Luck
