I used to shoot them if I could until one day I was trying to remove a squirrel's nest at the top of a juniper tree next to my garage, about 15 feet off the ground.

I had half of it torn out when I heard a high pitched squealing coming from the nest and one of two babies fell out.

When I got down off the ladder, the mother came running from around the neighbor's house and right at my feet she picked up the fallen baby and took off with it. A few minutes later she returned and climbed the tree and got the second one............

Well that was it, I surrendered and signed a cease fire against them.

All this morning I've been watching one jumping on the feeder off my back deck, hanging upside down by his hind feet and eating the sunflower seeds. Falling down, climbing back up the tree and doing it all over again..........LOL!
