<\/p>\nNow that the snow has gone, the little woodland critters have started visiting again. This morning I looked out the kitchen window to see a possum chowing down on a fallen bird feeder’s contents. This is the first time we have seen a possum and up close at that. The hostas are starting to peek through too.<\/p>\n

The squirrels knock the bird feeder off its hook. I didn’t catch any of them doing it but I know its them because I’ve seen them do it before. I will probably need to redesign the hook that the feeder hangs from to make it harder for them to knock it off. <\/p>\n
We have also started to see the chipmunks again. They hybernate over the winter and are only just emerging. I saw my first one this year about a week or two ago. Yesterday I saw two, one out by the driveway and another getting beat up by an overpossesive squirrel at the fallen feeder.<\/p>\n
Karen has also been getting into the warm weather. Last weekend we bought 8 bags of mulch that she spread around the hostas by the path to the shop. She said she will probably need another 8 to finish the job.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
