Don’t even think of crossing the Line of Demarcation, buddy!.
One trait common to a lot of animals is the concept of being territorial. Heck, humans aren’t really any different… we just don’t mark what we claim to be ours by taking a leak on it…. usually, anyway.
Squirrels are no different in this regard… often claiming nests, trees, land, and even squirrel girls for their very own. Here we see a pair of squirrels who seem to have come to some kind of agreement on their territorial rights in my backyard. It looks a lot like those cartoons showing a fighting couple separating the bedroom with a line drawn through the middle… only these two critters had no paint, so they used that big stick as a physical boundary. I’d say the squirrel on the sunny side’s got the better end of this deal, what with the stick curved outward to give him extra land…
What do you think? Dare you take sides in this cold war between Saturday Squirrels?
Have a great weekend, and if you are so inclined, a Happy Easter!
seems they are like humans… and at the end one of them has to walk the line, right?
Have a great Easter weekend or a great weekend too :o)
Happy Easter! Since I work my regular schedule, it’s just another couple days for me… but I miss getting to hide eggs for my sisters when I was a kid…
Happy Easter!
Happy Easter from a rotten egg!
Sulfuric, my favorite.
I figured your favorite acid was LSD…. 😉
No way…with my luck I wouldn’t come back. 😉
My money’s on the guy on the left. He looks like he means business, ready to pounce. The other guy looks a bit freaked out.
If he were smart, he’d just pick up the stick and use it as a weapon!
Dark side vs. light. An extremely appropriate battle for the holiday weekend.
I didn’t even consider that, even though I noted that one squirrel was in the shadows!
If they were kids, we’d lecture them on how they have to SHARE. My son was a clever lad. I overheard him holding up another kid for his toy with the threat “Share it to me or else.”
LOL! When has anyone ever seen a squirrel share anything? I don’t think they know the meaning of the word…
Then again, I don’t think most people know what the word “share” means anymore either…

I’ll just sit back and watch for the outcome, I’m too tired to take sides. lol
It would be fun to watch two squirrels play war games! Just wear a helmet to protect against the flying acorns…
LOL yeah, an acorn upside the head would hurt!
happy Easter ES and all squirrels everywhere! 😀
