So we have almost 1 acre with some elm, maple, and bradford pear trees - and one small black walnut sapling. there is a whole bunch of woods behind us tho, where a plethora of hickory, walnut, hackberry, etc grow, and a healthy family of huge fox squirrels that love to keep to the treeline and mostly out of the yard, except for planting the occasional walnut tree for me! I leave them alone, they stay out of the garden and keep back in the woods.
Now, in the woods with them is a family of nasty eastern greys. However, the greys usually stay away from the creek, and futher back in the woods. This morning, however, my dog saw one scamper up the maple right next to the driveway up to a partially finished drey! Oh no, these nasty dudes are not allowed next to the house - this must have been what dug up the flower pots on the front porch! So with my trusty pup cheeto to keep him treed, I went in and grabbed the gk1 carbine in the garage, lined up the red dot, and popped him twice.
30 minutes later cheeto is munching down on a meaty skinned and gutted carcass, and no more grey squirrels threaten the house!
