Our animal friends (July, 2003)

We are still on good terms with our squirrel. Here he is on our third floor balcony.

This is the same squirrel featured on our "Fraidy Squirrel" link, but he has become very brave! Here he is breaking and entering into our condo, stalking a walnut.

But the big news, in Pasadena, is that we have new neighbors. Mr. and Mrs. Dove have moved in, making a nest in a spider plant in a hanging basket on the aforementioned third floor balcony. There is always a dove sitting in the basket. We don't know which one is which; we think they take turns sitting. We hope to have news/pictures soon about little doves.

Back in Santa Barbara, the meercats in the zoo keep on the lookout for us.
