A Flying Rodent Steals the Show


We hosted ( as in offered our home as the location ) a birthday gathering yesterday for a niece that's turning 30. Time certainly does fly.
 
All in all, between 30 and 40 people attended. We primped the house & yard, and all the food & drinks were provided by others. Not too many leftovers, either. Darn.
 
The star of the event? A flying squirrel.
 
Another story for another day.
 
 
 
Guess I'll have to evict that little critter soon with one of those one-way trapdoor thingies.
 
A friend had the same problem a few years back, and decided to block the exit hole. Ummm...big mistake, as the rodents chewed a hole in his interior wall and started showing up in the oddest places. 
Imagine reaching for something on a shelf in your closet and finding a living furball instead...
 
It is kinda cute, though, with those big eyes and perfectly flat tail.
 
Anyway, I was up before dawn again today and got some pretty good shots on a cool late spring morning.
 
 
 
 
For all who check in from time-to-time...my recovery is still right on track.
 
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
