The tale of the horny squirrel

I watch as a downy woodpecker gingerly creeps up the lichen-covered maple limb. It listens to the language of the sapwood, careful not to miss any juicy morsel gnawing beneath. Suddenly, there is not one, but two downy friends. How lovely, I exclaimed. Wait, why is one on top of the other...Oh my.

Its spring time.

Recently, as I watched all the creatures around me but myself get hitched up, I felt a sort of sympathy for this squirrel. Tell me what you think..

Afterwards, he released its pugilistic squirrel-rage upon a fellow squirrel.
