good samaritan acts misunderstood

hi every bloggie!

Last week Mango and Peewee made a jail break- escaping the estate to oversee a construction site. I saw the news story and called the media to quickly state.. Mango in fact is not a moose.
It really stirred fear amongst the community. I DID NOT call the animal cops to get them arrested. Quite frankly I'm still unsure what Mango is exactly.. isn't that a fruit? I was trying to dispel the fear. That's all.

Any whooo, I not only hunt frogs.. but anything that moves. This includes the fall favorite-squirrels. I didn't seem to get anywhere just chasing them into a tree. I had to come up with a plan. Ah ha.. how about this trap.
Only problem, I have to wait after the trap is baited and spelled correctly. Ho hum where's my bottle of Baileys when I need it.
Wait.. I hear something. Yes indeed it worked!
Gotta Go!

  2. Norwood, that looks like a very good idea. Please let me know if it works. I have some nasty little chipmunks that torment me by my front window lookout. If it works for you I might try and find some smaller nuts and give it a try. Waiting for your results.

    licks and sniffs, Sasha

  6. What a clever trap sending the squirrels a message in their own language! I will be using that (unless you have copyrighted it) to lure in those squirrels that taunt me daily from the tree outside my kennel!
    I see you caught one already-good job, Norwood!
    You are such a NUT!! and I think that's why we understand each other so well.

    From one nutjob to another-have a fantastic week!

  22. Cripes. That Trevor McDonut reads the news your side of the pee too?

    I've never chased a squirrel. Ever. I know I know. Not worthy of my terrier title. Mom is wondering if I'm an acorn short of an oak tree.

    Wiry wags n kisses Eric xxxx

  23. Oh no, not HIM again!!! Get him Norwood.

  24. How about Frangelico, some hazelnut liqueur instead of Bailey's. Your rodent friend might get a whiff of it and run straight up to you and then you attack...just a thought...
