I was barely moving, my head hunched over as though in prayer, and I guess I was.<br /><br />I did not notice the squirrel, it did not notice me. I shifted positions, the squirrel jumped straight up, scared the snot out of me, and I jumped as well.<br /><br />It jumped onto a tree no more than a few feet from me, and turned to face me. It chattered vociferously, and I chattered back. I told Mr. Squirrel that I would leave his acorns alive if he would leave my basil alone.<br /><br />I should have taken some pictures today. Maybe tomorrow.doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12901661320505882735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-85907719732732889152010-10-23T21:09:54.394-04:002010-10-23T21:09:54.394-04:00Pretty amazing the part about the basil seed.

The squirrels ate two large basil plants I had growing on a stoop:(Mary Ann Reillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14349201167828984708noreply@blogger.com
