Hello Steve, all done work?
Wonder what the rest of the story is with that police dog....if the perp and the girl lived in the same house? Something may have threw the dog off.
Once in a while I see deer tracks in my yard.

I put out peanuts for the squirrels, have 2 seed bells hanging from the awning and put a suet cake along with songbird mix in the bird feeder I hung in the tree out front. The cats are really impressed with me.

There was a park close to where I lived in Burnaby where the Police did some chase training with their dogs and they were especially strict with keeping children away from where they were allowed training, adults could walk up to the fence and a cop would come over to chat but not if you had kids with you.

The squirrels keep the yard mouse free and help the cats chase off magpies and crows.

Squirrels are territorial and will kill off a nest of mice in minutes as they eat the same things. Survival of the dominant species, they'll jump out of the tree in front if they see a magpie going after a peanut. I've had quite a few squirrel vs magpie chases and they leave the cats in their dust although Sally is learning how to scale a tree in high gear now.

Hello everyone on a fine Monday morning!
That`s the first I`ve heard of aggressive squirrels where can I get some?
How`s your day going Shaun? I`m tinkering in my yard getting a few things organised. There will be more grass to cut soon.

Pretty much Morris. They were testing the elevator recalls today. And in a few weeks we will have the quarterly sprinkler testing that has to be done. Nothing like having to hook up a hose to a building to make sure the sprinkler system flows the proper amount of water when it is needed. a few of our buildings have fire pumps connected to the sprinkler systems that pump 1500 gallons per minute. Or 5678.118 liters per minute.
