Hell , you'd think a squirrel could keep warm a few days ... that sucksRonv69 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 28, 2023 9:40 am We're having weird weather in Texas, again. It's cold and rainy, (think northern Ireland), with no freezes forecast through end of February. This is a relief of course, after February of 21.
Our big freeze came early this winter.
The Great Freeze of 21 killed 92% of all the squirrels in North Texas. The trees and shrubs are still trying to recover. Now, at the end of January, our forsythias are blooming and the daffodils are starting to bloom. Has the weather always been this strange. I don't remember it being weird from my childhood, but we lived in Houston and only had 2 seasons.

They're recovering. A couple of good years later we have 3 in the yard. Hunting for them is still bleak though. They do breed like rats.Ruffinogold wrote: ↑Fri Mar 24, 2023 7:19 pmPoor guys .
