Adventurous August

Mr Squirrel's Diaries XIV

So I'm back in my garden. Back in the game. It feels good to be home. The kids have left the drey, Lady Squirrel has taken good care of them. It's time for them to find a new home and live their life. It's only me and my ladies again. After a month of relaxation and loneliness it feels good to have some company. It's still hot, summer is still there. We are playing our games mostly in the morning or in the evening, to escape the heat. I'm full of energy again. 

Hot hot summer

Mr Squirrel's diary XIII

It is hot. It is summer. Do you even know how hot it is when you're wearing your fur all the time? I tried to stay at home, but it was just too much stress. My ladies had our children and it was so exhausting caring for them all the time that I decided to take some time off. So I went on vacation to the park nearby. The park is beautiful, there is a stream where you can always get enough water to drink. In my garden water is rare in summer. So I packed my things and went to the park. I found a nice little empty drey to sleep for a few weeks and enjoyed the silence and peace. No female squirrels, no chasing, no responsibilities. That's just what I needed. I stayed there from the beginning of July until August. It's the hottest time of the year. All I did was eating some leaves (nuts are too heavy in summer) and drink a lot of water. It was so relaxing.
