Little Squirrel Thieves

Betty says,

"Our house was built in a walnut grove. When we first moved in, the walnut trees were producing so many walnuts that we could not keep up with them. Overtime, there are less and less walnuts. Before the nuts become mature, the squirrels pick them from the trees and scatter them in the yard or buried them in the soil.

Squirrels are known to like nuts; we did not expect that the darn squirrels also like persimmons. They pick the persimmons, give the fruits a few bites and then scatter them all over.

People like to use "breed like the rabbits" to describe fertility; these squirrels breed a lot more than the rabbits. Anyone want some squirrels?"
