kampfirekim 260 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Love the update and looking forward to the new "digs!"Cell phones were something out of Sci Fi when I was dating! Grandma always made sure we had a dime for the pay phone in case we needed to call home! Yes, I am older than white dog poop!For me it was a quarter. My grandma called it "mad money". In case I got mad on a date and needed to call home. ;DI can't believe H is leaving the hay field. I've gotten so used to the place. I'll miss it.Not to worry Dave. He'll still be in a field. A newly discovered field and it's down a dirt road, off a paved road, off the main road. Believe me.. you'll feel right at home. :rofl2:Oh yeah... i think he said he'll have to drive past ponds to get to it too. And there's a river nearby. More adventure!

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Sorry, but I don't think that is a fox squirrel.This is what the fox squirrels I have seen look like:According to this authoritative source, there is, indeed, such a thing as a black squirrel: Black Squirrel Article . And this is what they say a black squirrel looks like:So I say KFK got that one right!TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Fox squirrels come in a range of colors, but most have the mask (nose and ear tips) - like yours and KFK's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 I can't believe H is leaving the hay field. I've gotten so used to the place. I'll miss it.That's just what I was thinking.Not to worry Dave. He'll still be in a field. A newly discovered field and it's down a dirt road, off a paved road, off the main road.

I've never heard of or seen one before.I think fox squirrels are and endangered or at least a protected species in my neck of the woods.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 I see black squirrels in Northwest Lower Michigan all the time. They do in fact exist but I believe the black squirrel native to Michigan is actually a black "phase" grey squirrel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kampfirekim 260 Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 You are just controversial.cough it up... we wanna hear it.Ok.. if you insist.WARNING TO ANIMAL ACTIVISTS... YOU WON'T LIKE THIS.My bro (who is very squeamish etc...) was in the backyard shooting a BB gun. Mind you, he is not a great shot. However, he hit a squirrel. The squirrel fell from the tree, lifeless onto the ground. When my bro went over to look at it up close... the squirrel miraculously "sprung back to life"... nearly scaring the daylights out of my poor bro! You might need to know my bro to appreciate the full humor of this but I nearly split my sides just thinking about it. :lmao1:Only my brother could shoot a squirrel and only knock him unconscious! :facepalm: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
