<h2>please allow me to introduce "Rocky"</h2>
this is <i><b>my</b></i> squirrel! well, at least she is <i>my favorite</i> squirrel in our backyard. she's been around a long time, too. i know for certain since at least fall of 1998, because we had our first dog euthanized in february of 1999 & rocky was here well before then. over the years i figured out that "rocky" is more of a "roxanne" (the appearance of the occasionally swollen nursing teats yknow), but since she comes when i call "rocky", the name remains the same. without a single doubt, i know this squirrel distinctively not only by her short tail, but also because she showed up one morning about 3 yrs back with one eye put out. her very keen good eye is in this pic: <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/m0us33/hasfurrychildren/rocky1.jpg"> her blind eye is shown in this pic: <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/m0us33/hasfurrychildren/rocky2.jpg"> she used to come inside my back porch door into my kitchen to retrieve nuts, but that routine ceased once we acquired the two young & not so small dogs. so i have a clay dish, bolted on the tall back fence now to put the nuts, safely well out of the canines' access. days to a couple weeks sometimes go by when i don't see rocky. sometimes i think she's trained her offsprings to fetch the nuts for the family. haha anyway i am always happy to see her brave little face, because i know that one day i will never see her again. before the new dogs, she & i almost touched a few times. almost. we both were a bit scared i guess. she did however take nuts from my hand a few times. she still allows me to get within a foot or two of her. she knows me as well as i know her. <3

in fact... i pretty much think you love those little bastards almost as much as i do. but don't worry! i won't tell anyone. and alas... this is the only "skwerl" pic i can find right now... this is rocky 3.5 yrs ago, just shortly after her eye was put out. <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/m0us33/hasfurrychildren/rocky2k1.jpg"> her coat looked so much better back then. actually her coat looked really patchy today, like some of the fur was growing back... i bet she's been defending her latest litter or sumthin'. what a gal, eh?

Beer Drinkers And Hell Raisers
If you see me walkin' down the line with my fav'rite honky tonk in mind, well, I'll be here around suppertime with my can of dinner and a bunch of fine. Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah. Uh-huh-huh, baby, don't you wanna come with me? The crowd gets loud when the band gets right, steel guitar cryin' through the night. Yeah, try'n to cover up the corner fight but ev'rything's cool 'cause they's just tight. Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah. Huh, baby, don't you wanna come with me? Ah, play it boy. The joint was jumpin' like a cat on hot tin. Lord, I thought the floor was gonna give in. Soundin' a lot like a House Congressional 'cause we're experimental and professional. Beer drinkers, hell raisers, yeah. Well, baby, don't you wanna come with me? |

with a camera... yes.
<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/m0us33/hasfurrychildren/rocky_avocado.jpg"> i was out of nuts this day, so i gave my furry friends half an avocado. ms. rocky took several nibbles & was seeming to enjoy it, but i think in the end the oiliness of the fruit freaked her out. she took off down the fence wiping & shaking her little paws. i went out & bought more peanuts, yes.
