THE SQUIRREL - WINNER

I asked you which of the squirrels would be the first to come beg/eat today.
These were the potential beggars
A. Climber
B. Piggy
C. Scar
D. Lady
E. Brown Belly
F. The Field (Other)

AND THE WINNER IS...

F. The Field (Other) - Poser

The weather turned cold and rainy today, but yesterday was the last of the beautiful days. When I went to the back door, there must have been 30 ducks in the yard, and most of the squirrels were staying out of their way. When I opened the door, all the ducks took off, and the squirrels all headed for the bird feeders. But our young lady Poser was still staying out of the way, right next to the back door. She was surprised, but more than happy to assume the beggar position She managed to get only two almonds before the others came charging over. Everybody enjoyed lunch.

Following are today's winners:

THE SQUIRREL

Our home has a wonderful backyard that borders on a small lake. We love sitting around and watching all the wild life from a bay window in our breakfast nook, and when it's nice outside, we sit on our deck and enjoy the view. We put up a bird feeder and a little squirrel house.



Besides the birds, we get squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, ducks, and more. Since my wife and I are retired, we enjoy feeding them and encouraging them to come into our back yard to play, frolic AND EAT

When it's nice, I feed them personally while sitting on the deck. As they are getting more used to me and less afraid, they like to come up and beg for almonds while I'm out there.
When the weather is bad, I stand at my back door and throw the almonds to them, and I spread a bunch of peanuts around as well.

This contest is simple... simply predict which of the squirrels will come up and beg/eat first. To make this easier, it's multiple choice and there are only 6 choices
Here is your cast of characters...

A. Climber

The true Alpha Male of our back yard. Fast, agile, aggressive and always chasing the others away

B. Piggy

Number 2 in the pecking order. A little slow, but big and doesn't scare easily. ALWAYS hunting for food

C. Scar

Scar has been in fight or "two" He is fast and aggressive, and will "mix it up" with the other squirrels. But also knows when to back away from a stronger squirrel

D. Lady

Always hanging around on the perimeter and will take a "roll in the tree" at a moments notice

E. Brown Belly

Very friendly, and also very smart

F. The Field (Other)

Our back yard attracts all the squirrels in the neighborhood, and some of them are really characters:
Wimp - is scared of everything
Itchy - constantly scratching
Stevie Wonder - smart, but blind as a bat
Thug - slow but huge
Rat - He looks like one with his pencil thin tail
Acrobat - While not an Alpha, Acrobat is daring and unafraid, making incredible climbs and jumps... but does sometimes takes a header
Poser - The new girl on the block
And a host of others...
