GOING TO GET AN EVICTION NOTICE!

It'S INSIDE, AND DOESN'T HAVE ANY FEATHERS...

...THIS RED SQUIRREL IS GOING TO GET AN EVICTION NOTICE!
Monday, 8:30 AM. 41 degrees F at the ferry dock,  40 on the back porch.  Wind N, mostly calm with light to moderate gusts.  The humidity is 68%, the barometer is steady, at 30.14".  The forecast calls for cooling temperatures today and tomorrow, then dropping into the 20's for a few days, then warming into the 30's and 40's with cloudy weather and chances of rain.
   Yesterday, while on a job site on Chequamegon Road, I heard a flock of geese making a tremendous ruckus on nearby Pike's Bay.  Maybe they were complaining because they flew there all the way from wherever to find it still frozen over.
   Yesterday, while having my morning coffee, I saw a  furry red tail sticking out of the bird house on the back porch.  The tail was suddenly withdrawn inside, and just as suddenly a little red head stuck out. Then the diminutive red squirrel bolted out the entrance and off the porch.  
   Just as quickly he (or she) returned, and did it all over again, much too quickly for me to photograph its activities; maybe next time.
   In any event, this little imposter has no feathers, and so will receive an eviction notice shortly!
