Squirrelly – Conversations with the Pack

Posted on by H.J. Hill

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Lady Human, a squirrel is acting squirrelly.

Me: Isn’t that as it should be?

Doodlebug: It’s picking seeds out of a big sunflower’s face. It’s not allowed to do that. What about us?

Me: We’re fine. Let the squirrel share.

Sweetie: But it’s climbed up a flower stalk that is as tall as a human!

MoonCat: Squirrelly would be if it didn’t climb up and grab those seeds. Tall sunflower equals short tree.

Fence Peepers – Conversations with the Pack

Posted on by H.J. Hill

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human, look at the fence! We are being watched.

Sweetie: A big bird and a bushy rat wagging its fluffy tail at us. How rude!

Me: A male cardinal and a squirrel. The rain is over and they are out and about.

Sweetie: Move along, spies! Nothing here for you to see!

MoonCat: Spread your wings, fluff your fur, and dry out quickly. The sky is keeping its secrets.
