Default Critter

Similar neighborhood - groundhogs (eat my tulips, so wish I could get rid of them). Possums - don't see them very often, mostly late at night if there's something edible on the back deck. Turkeys like to nest at night in our maples. Deer like our yard - wish they didn't - they eat almost ANYTHING! Finally convinced the red squirrel that he'd find more to eat OUTSIDE! He was in the house for more than a week. Ditto with the BAT! Sometimes I hate spring! We get at least one bat every spring. Our house is 150 years old, so there are too many cracks to plug up. And we can hear the squirrels scratching around beneath attic and second floor floorboards. They usually don't make it to the 1st floor, but one did this year. He was frantic to get out - and I opened the door for him. He finally figured it out. Thank goodness!
