Don't let the difficulties of the present moments overshadow the reality of God's promises. God's promises still stand. And God's promises are stronger than our failures.

We've Been Robbed!

And here's the thief! This squirrel was determined to eat the suet intended for the birds, even if he had to become a contortionist to do it!

Squirrels win hands down in the agility competition around here, too! They are so cheeky; drives the dogs nuts as they skim over their yards just above Cade's and Bandit's heads! So much fun to watch. You wonder at their sheer bravado as they comfortably fly limb to limb! Must be a lesson in their somewhere...something about being confident enough to let go of one branch before you completely have the other one in hand. Risk takers! Great photo, Marlene! Looks like its eyeballing the next feat!

Glad you caught him! At least you got a good laugh out of it. Shameless! :-)

I love squirrels. They're such acrobats.

Quite the little acrobat. Aren't they fun to watch. When we lived in town I went to a Ladies Bible Study on Tues. AM. At the front of the room was a large window. The squirrels running back and for on the electrical wires and anyplace else they could get got alot of attention. Could watch and listen but it was distracting. Cute critters.

What a clever little thief. They love to eat the fruit off of our trees. The bunnies get their share too.... and the gophers. With so many little bandits it is a wonder we get any at all.

I love the pictures of your spring trees. Ours look the same.
What a lovely time of year.
Have a great week. Hugs, Lura

Aggrivating when I find all my feeders on the ground compliments of a ticked off squirrel but I truly admire and love to watch those incredible athletes. Great capture.

Bad squirrel! They still try to get up to my bird feeders but I have guards on them and they are no where near anything they can jump from to get on them.

I love watching the squirrel's play in our trees. They can cause a lot of trouble though, but it looks like they just have a good time all day.
