Thievery

in #photography5 years ago

Every Winter it seems like my cabin is getting harder and harder to heat.

Because the squirrels are stealing the insulation from my cabin and using it to build toasty warm nests for themselves.

I see a piece of duct tape I used to patch the hole in the tarp that was covering my woodpile.

Those little buggers! The nerve! Maybe you should just get them their own insulation and they'll leave yours alone!

Hello..!!
@goat-girlz
The NERVE of them is exactly right...!!!! 🤷‍♀️😐

Oh my goodness what pretty squirrel art, especially in
the pot with the kitty looking at it. Kinda reminded me
of growing Tribbles lol
Looks a lot like our squirrel And this last photo looks
like a squirrel launcher lol

Hello..!!
@shasta
😉 Squirrel launcher.. ya got me thinking ..hmmm🤔
For a moment I did pause to recognize the Art of it all.
😅Tribbles. I didn't think of that..lol!!!
:D

Tribbles were trouble, on the old
original Star Trek was a show called
The trouble with tribbles. They were
fuzzy critters that reproduced real fast
and about took over all the room on
the spaceship, they made cute little
sounds lol
Quite a few short youtube vids of them :-)

They are so naughty. I'm almost afraid to go up in my attic.

Hello..!!

Big time naughty thieves..!!
I understand the attic thing. It's probably one giant Squirrel nest. I cannot find where they are coming in yet...!!!!!!!!
:D

I started having difficulties this winter with my thermostat. I kept turning it lower and the furnace would run continously. The heating repairman came and ran some checks and figured out that the air in the wall behind my thermostat was only 50 degrees and the thermostat was registering an improper temperature. When I asked why an interior wall would have a temperature of only 50 degrees he suggested that possibly insulation had been moved around in my attic allowing cold air down into the wall. I don't even want to know....

Hello...!!
