The shadows and the shovel

· · 🌡️ 73°F

Mario, the boy squirrel had an accident and didn't make it. He was survived by 3 children and his wife. I was going to take a pic of the grave but I think I need to dress it up a bit tomorrow. Nothing like burying in the dark of a fall evening with church bells clanging in the background.

    It was my fault. I was rushing to shut the door to keep the baby squirrel from running out of the room. I didn't realize the boy squirrel was at the top. He died just a few moments after the accident. We were going to put him out of his misery, but luckily he was dead before we could do anything. Poor thing. The mama squirrel seems to be doing well, she has her 3 babies to keep her company. I miss the 'lil bugger already. He was just too damn adventurous! Live hard, live fast.
