Hello!
I am thrilled to have found The Squirrel Board. No squirrels live with me inside my house, but several do live in the oak trees by my house, so they are always scurrying around the property and visiting me on my deck and in my backyard. They have always been welcomed visitors, but I have found that spending time with them over the years has made me grow ever-more fond of the little creatures.
I have found that that the little guys bring me joy. I simply cannot help but forget my troubles and smile whenever I watch them cavort and caper about. I have gotten to recognize the small differences that allow me to tell one individual squirrel from another and their distinct "personalities." I have come to enjoy their company even more than some of my closest friends.
I set out healthy snacks for them and provide them with clean water...but often I find myself wondering if there is any more I can do for them to make their lives and happier or healthier. They do so much for me, I want to return the favor. I am not an expert by any means. That's why I am thrilled to find a community of squirrel lovers who might be able to share some ideas of things I can do to attract, delight, entertain, protect or serve my friendly neighborhood squirrels in anyway.
