Squirrels ARE NOT an endangered species! For the past two (2) weeks I have been trapping and relocating them from my back yard. So far, I have relocated a total of 16 of the rodents. This morning when I got up, I saw six (6) more in the back yard!!!

    nice photo.thumb.gifthumbthumb.gif

    You do realize that unless you drug them (sedate to point of unconsciousness )
    and move them over several hundred miles as the crow flies that they can indeed
    find their way back "home".........they are very smart and crafty little guys.....


    Another way to keep them out of back yard is to
    NOT FEED themmwink.gifwinkmwink.gifrolleyes1.gifroflrolleyes1.gif

    Nice shot.

    You want to come to my house. We have them in the attic- again. Never been able to get one in the trap.

    Agree, they will find their way home!

    Maybe that, in part, because that territory was now open for the taking so a new bunch mover in! :D

    Besides there are probably lots to attract them, so it will be a never ending war..........headscratch.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
