Squirrel and trimming

The squirrel came back yesterday.  In the morning I found the squirrel wrapped around the bird's suet cage.

I got out a ladder and moved the suet cage over a foot.

I also trimmed the shrubs around the house.   Normally I like to trim them in the Fall just before Winter.  However what usually happens is that I run out of time before the first snow and then I wait till Spring.  Come Spring I delay as I have all Spring and Summer before Winter.  Then it is Winter again.

Since I had the ladder out I spent the afternoon trimming the shrubs and bushes.

One down, one to go.
