Critter Count Summer 09 Begins (DAY ONE) not counting the trial run that netted a raccoon...



This morning, after baiting my critter catcher last night with a crusty rye bread and peanut butter treat, I awakened to the absolute largest squirrel I have ever seen sitting in the trap giving me a bit of attitude. I loaded him or her up and relocated him or her to a lovely little treed area on the south edge of Highlands Ranch. "Daniel's Park, HERE I COME!" were the last words I heard him or her scream as he or she scrambled across the field toward a grove of scrub oak...

Trivia question: From my new book The World According to Gabe, which character dresses in military garb and is just a tad annoying with all his army talk?

You know Daniels park was once a huge teenage party spot! Perhaps the squirrel will have some REAL fun their!

I know, when I run out there I see about a million Keystone cans on the road. Why always Keystone?

So you are a critter lover? How nice for you to transfer him. What a cute picture. Does your IG chase the critters.. I have to be careful when I'm walking Skylar. If she sees a bunny she will bolt!
