    Stupid things are so loud! They love playing mind games with me. Had one go as far as to get on a stump, partially behind a tree during twilight and shake his tail up and down like a deer.

    They're good fried and served with gravy.

    .22 ammo is cheap and picking off squirrels is darn near theraputic.

    I think they're awesome to watch in the woods. Crazy athletic and it never looks like they are not having fun. Kind of annoying at times but so are turkeys.

    If I could be any animal for just a week, I'd be a squirrel, run around the woods, find where the biggest deer live, then when I return as a I human I shall kill said deer.

    Three days in, you'd end up fried and served with gravy. ;)

    I hate them. Had one tare a hole in the screen as come in and grab some bagels. I chased him for a month and shot him with an arrow as he looked at me in my back yard. This of course was after he climbed up and down my sliding screen door.

    I laughed.

    Annoying yes, but I even by being as still as possible and see how close they will get (~2.5' is my PR). Then its my turn...

    And the birds of prey where I hunt seem to find them delicious. I've watched hawks/eagles take them out many a time.

    We just had squirrel in a red curry sauce and then a couple days later I butchered a turkey, 40 lbs dressed weight.

    I don't mind eating them, I just hate them when they are alive...and in the woods...by where I'm hunting.

    Yes, I hunt.

    Why not multi-task?

    Bring lots of arrows. :tu:
