After an invasion of pigeons, I stopped feeding the birds for a few weeks this summer. The squirrels didn´t like this at all. They still find pinecones up in the trees, but to get their beloved sunflower seeds, they have had to go elsewhere.
Then my brother and his family came down from the Lofoten Islands to stay with us for a week. My niece came with her two little sons, Birk almost three years old, and Olai, 3 1/2 months. There are no squirrels in Lofoten, so for Birk I started to feed the birds (and the squirrels) again.
The squirrels are back, at least two of them. And so far only one pigeon has been seen.
Last year I wrote a daily blog on behalf of the squirrel family in the garden. You can find the blog here.
My goal is to make the posts into a book for Leander, and now, with my new MacBook, I can finally download the programs I need to make this dream come true.
