and I have a very happy squirrel population. sigh. . .
No apricots here this year (the blossoms all froze, as usual), but I
spent months worrying about my squirrel problem and trying to discourage
them. Well, that worked, but now the birds are pecking holes in
everything (especially the apples and nectarines).
If it's not one thing, it's another, huh? At least I don't have deer
(though I chased a half-grown opossum out of the yard the other day).
