When the squirrel went head down, that was definitely the case. Switching back and forth kept me and the doggo guessing.

My first experience with squirrels doing things because they can was a long time ago. I was at a friend’s house for a barbecue. We were all gathered around partying while the food was grilling when all of a sudden there was a “bing” on the top of one of the Webber grills. It freaked out one of the women as something bounced and hit her.

She looked down and saw a fractured walnut shell. She mentioned it to my friend and he said it was the squirrels, they liked to sit in the tree right above the grill and throw nut shell pieces and plink them off the grill tops. But they only did it when they had an audience.

Someone suggested to move the grills, he told them to look up, his whole back area had tree branches covering it. That person didn’t understand, then my friend told them the grills used to be over there pointing to a spot, and then over there, pointing to another spot. It didn’t matter, the squirrels would sit above wherever the grills were and plink them will nut shells.

Funny little creatures.
