Meet Bob!

Bob the Squirrel: 
 This may be my favorite pet -- I don't have to take care of it and it provides me endless entertainment.
Neighbor Jim caught Bob running off with one of his tomatoes last summer.  Can you picture it running from his garden carrying a big red tomato?

I think you can tell from this picture why we call it "Bob"!
It's fun to speculate just exactly what might have happened to that tail.

 And the next picture shows why we have decided Bob is a "she" -- guess her real name is Bobette!
These are last year's babies playing in the Catalpa tree -- there were at least three. I have heard her scolding her babies when they are causing her grief just like I do mine. 
I hope there were will be more babies to watch soon!

Sometimes when I say, "Look, a squirrel!", there really is one.
