And two days later… it’s gone 🙂
(Although, to be honest, the cage is on the ground near the base of the tree, abandoned now by squirrels, with not an atom of suet to be seen!)
Squirrel Hanging From A Cage
Here’s a photo I just took:
Note two things:
1) The line of demarcation between our yard and that of our neighbour, made all-too-obvious by the maniacal lack of fallen leaves on her grass! I guess I should take this as a hint that it’s time to get outside and start raking.
2) This guy, hanging from a suet-feeder:
This is actually a brand new suet feeder, since the last one was stolen by squirrels. Yes, stolen. As in they fished it up to the branch by pulling on the chain, and then somehow detached the entire cage and took it to parts unknown.
I wonder if this one will disappear as well?
NYCC Day Four
Day four at NYCC looked a bit like this:
And a bit like this:
Sunday, the last day of the con, is the shortest. It’s also kids day. This means a greater density of attendees right from the opening time. Yep, it’s madness.
So what did we see and do yesterday? Well we bought stuff (alas no Gundam), went to a panel (Viz), spent some time in ‘artists alley’ (I chatted with two MTG artists and got a basic land signed!) and basically made ourselves even more tired!
The train trip home, much later in the day, was a peaceful and relaxing merciful release from the relentlessness that is 4 days of NYCC. But you can bet we’ll be back next year!
Here’s the Sunday cosplay highlights:
