Bertha’s picnic

It’s so cold outside and I’d hate for the squirrelies to go hungry. I leave nuts out for them on a perch high enough up a tree that the cats can’t bother them. I’ve gotten pretty good at differentiating them. This is Bertha because she’s chubby, has not very much brown, and has a thin little tail.

    Do you think she’s pregnant? what is the gestation time for squirrels?

    Hmm, pregnant. She’s always been chubby, but with the amount of squirrels around here it would also be hard for her NOT to be pregnant. Gestation is 1.5 months. She has a cozy house to raise her kids in, if she needs it.
