We have a limit on how many can reside here at one time. Red squirrels are a big no no and are dispatched quickly. Grey's are allowed if no more than 6. After that, the have-a heart goes out and, if they are lucky/smart they go in it to be taken elsewhere to live a long life. If none are caught... well.. they are sent to live in squirrel heaven with the aid of a .22

Ah, yes the rest of the story! Thanks for sharing.

And yes, I can attest too that red squirrels are a true rodent...

That reminds me of a video with a bated clay pigeon launcher I saw once. I doubt if the squirrel was amused but I sure thought it was funny!
