Squirrel Appreciation Weekend!

Yes, it's time for the 2024 edition of Squirrel Appreciation Day, but with January 21st being on a Sunday this year, I thought it would be only appropriate to celebrate the whole weekend! After all, you never can over-celebrate when it comes to squirrels!

I know right now there's some fierce January weather in many places, but if you have an opportunity to go outside, keep an eye out for our Special Friends, as I'm sure they could use some extra food support at this time of year. One good possibility I've discovered in the last year is Kaytee Corn on the Cob, which is a huge hit in my backyard. There are times when I've found that EVERY kernel on that day's cob has been eaten! Way too much fun!

I hope everyone has endearing and heartfelt adventures while appreciating squirrels this weekend if the weather allows. Be sure to share your pictures and stories, and if you are unable to venture out much, always remember there is an abundance of squirrel videos and literature to keep the good times rolling! Because like that old song says, "Squirrels Just Wanna Have Fun!"

"Squirrels Just Wanna Have Fun"

Absolute bullshit! They're miserable, relentless, destructive little fuckers when they force their way into your home. https://www.midatlanticwildlifecontrol.com/squirrels-cause-house-fires/

As yet another Squirrel Appreciation Day recedes into the past, I just wanted to say "THANK YOU" to all who positively participated. For myself, I saw 1 squirrel on Friday, 3 on Saturday, 5 on Sunday, and 1 more today (but it's early).

We'll do this again next year, and until then, always keep an eye out for these loveable, fascinating creatures. And don't forget the month of October is Squirrel Awareness Month!
