#squirrel war

I have been giving them unlimited peanut access if they come up and ask

Very cute and i get to see bellies

This is fine they either want one or 2 and then scamper away

BUT THIS EVENING

One auspicious squirrel has been coming to the door asking for one. I give, she goes off and buries it in the backyard not 10 feet from the door and I'm watching.

Comes back right away asking for another one, while being suspicious that she may too go and bury this one i gave in because she stood on her back legs sooo cute<3

But surely enough runs off and buried it next to the other one, comes aback and asks for another one

At this point having enough and having forbidden eldrich knowledge of whete this squirrel had hidden its treasure I go outside. Dig up the recently hidden goodies and toss em to her
