Meredith woke me because I was having some weird about a dream where someone was trying to steal my baby dragon and I was making all sorts of noises. Haha.
Walking through Stuytown later in the afternoon I came across a a dead baby squirrel (with a fly already on its mouth) that must've fallen out of the trees above.
I like squirrels, but Stuytown pretty much has a squirrel INFESTATION. It's pretty ridiculous. As you walk along the path, every single tree will have two, sometimes three squirrels clinging to it hiding from you all Mission: Impossible style.
It was an unseasonably warm day out so we decided to walk there! On the way out of Stuy Town, we saw this little guy hanging out underneath the standpipe connection.
After work on Tuesday I brought my bike to the bike shop to get some work done and ran into this baby squirrel sitting on the window ledge of the shop!
He let me get REALLY close before his burgeoning squirrel-senses kicked in and he realized that allowing himself to be touched probably wasn't such a good idea.
...stole this stuffed squirrel that was tied to a homeless man's abandoned shopping cart on my block that we'd passed earlier in the day and laughed at. Weed and a Squirrel down the street!
