A cheeky squirrel.

We were out and she was not happy, as there were no peanuts.

So she came to sit close to me, to show me that she had to pick an acorn.

We had to leave in a hurry and I forgot to put nuts down for them on our study window sill. They had the early morning nuts, but they must have had a surprise as there were no normal afternoon nuts.
So this little lady had a lesson from Mother nature for me.

As to say, yes you can look as we can get our own nuts.

What? You better leave me alone, as I want absolutely nothing from you.
So don't come any closer with the false sorrow on your face.

And off she went. Now here's the thing, she didn't disappear as she wasn't finished with me.

Oh no, she wanted to make it absolutely clear that I saw the acorn.

Meantime there was a dove relaxing in the cool water of the bird bath.

But the dove had to give way in a big hurry for our thirsty lady.

So did she spite me? Not at all as I simply went inside and laid their nuts out on the window sill. Soon all of our squirrels came to have their fill including the aggrieved lady.
However, there was a lesson in this after all. We are so quick to get our anger up if we feel that somebody has offended us. Short fuses is what they call it and it's never a good thing.

A lady walked across a restaurant floor to slap a man in his face as the man was staring at her all of the time. She burst out in tears when the manager came to tell her that the man was blind. He turned his head in her direction, so that he could hear when they brought his food from the kitchen.
So before you get your back up, always make sure that you understand the full story. Two sides to every coin as they say.

And That's All Friends.

Love your "offended" squirrel friend, hehe, And you are absolutely right. We should have the whole story before reacting, but sometimes it's hard to achieve. After all, we are just humans :)

Oh yes, the we are only humans excuse has helped us to defend many of our problems, but we simply have to learn never to react on instinct, as most often we get it wrong.

Great lesson! Think before you act.

And always ask yourself, what's my part in this?

Oh yes, they say what you hate and see in others, is in fact inside yourself.

I just love seeing your squirrels, she really was giving you a telling off!
I love how animated animals are, we can learn so much from them, if only we actually take notice to what they are saying.

Totally agree, there are always two sides to any story.

Sorry for the late reply as we are very busy over here.
Oh yes, it was only my way of seeing the situation and so many others will have different ways of what happened here.
Mother nature is indeed a great teacher and I have been following her teachings for a long time.

Yes, two sides to any story and we just have to create the habit to think before we act.

No, she is from last year's litter and we have had a few of forgiving arguments over the time !LOLZ

Shame she didn't know that he was blind and I bet that she will never forget that lesson.
