The beautiful red cardinal stood high in the small tree near Squirrels’ Corner, his song carried along on the breeze. He sang a eulogy for the squirrel who lay dead by the pile of construction debris in the street.
The poor little squirrel suffered the misfortune of returning to his hideout in the neighbor’s attic after the exterminators had come. He will be missed in the garden!
We only hope none of the others try to return there…
