When Nora is disappointed by Torvald’s answer to her requests, Torvald attempts to cheer her by referring to her as his squirrel. In response, Bloom’s Nora uses two fingers to stroke her nose and makes a small, high pitched…
My nose is plastered to the ground. I smell all of the usual scents until one catches my attention. This one is new but familiar. I follow it across the fence as the scent gets stronger. I smell the scent as it travels up the fence. I smell faster and the hair along my spine is on end. This scent is fresh. The squirrel is still here; I can 't see it, but I can smell it. I follow my nose up as high as I can reach and pause to listen. The squirrel is on top of the fence, I can hear him.…
Gut microbes will change when squirrels are in hibernation because their dietary intake will switch from active to inactive. This means that they will not consume food during their hibernation, including interbout arousals or periods of time where conditions return the squirrel’s active state. Microbes in hamsters do not change during hibernation because during their interbout arousals, they do in fact consume food rather than the lipid-based that ground squirrels rely…
In To Kill A Mockingbird, Arthur “Boo” Radley is a man who stayed at home all the time. Since he stayed at home, people made up rumors about him. Jem, for instance, told Scout and Dill that Boo is six-and-a-half feet tall, he would dine on raw squirrels and any cats he could catch. There is a long jagged scar that ran across his face; his white teeth turned into yellow and rotten. For the people in Maycomb, they made up rumors saying that when he was young, Boo and his friends was in the wrong…
of all different shape and size all imprinted in the snow; going all sorts of directions. All of these animals used this orchard as their feeding grounds. Crows began to caw as the sun rose over the mountains, birds began to flutter their wings, and squirrels scurried up the branches. Never have I watched nature for entertainment. The sound of a squirrel gnawing on an apple began to pester me. I thought about shooting it, but it would ruin this beautiful show happening before my…
Ben and I It all started off with us being in Warsaw, Poland 1946. That was where we had trained to get prepared for war against the Nazis. I met Ben by partnering up with him from a unit. I still remember the experiences that I went through with Ben and how we both saved each other lives once in the woods. We were in a unit, about to be sent off to take out the Nazis. I looked around and all I saw were soldiers terrified, not knowing what they are about to go through, except one. He wasn’t far…
I couldn't see what it was that had ripped me from the ground I could only hear sinister growling. Then I caught a glimpse of these long sharp white teeth as they began tearing into my weak flesh. Screaming I tried to run but whatever it was had picked me up taking away any hope escaping. Next, I felt these…
identified that the causative agent as a bacterium and set that plague is spread by toxic flea bites. Rat plague was soon brought under control in most civilized areas, but the pandemic spread easily to the local citizens of small mammals and ground squirrels in Africa, Asia and the Americas. These new species which carried the pandemic have allowed plague to become native in many outback, including the western U.S. However it is a bacterial disease but it can be treated with antibiotics, and it…
"Dad, do I really have to go!" I yell across the room as I finished packing my suitcase. "Yes! We've already discussed this, you spend the summer at Aunt Clarisse's and your mother and I get to celebrate our ten year anniversary." he hollers back. I roll my eyes as I lay down on my bed. "No, you mean you and Mom stated the facts, such as forcefully shipping me off to Aunt Clarisse's, which I might add isn't even my real aunt! While you and mom ride off into the sunset in Hawaii!" I…

The more common wildlife on the site is the wonderful coyotes, ravens, roadrunners, ground squirrels and lizards and if you're lucky you may see a bighorn sheep in the mountains. It is recommended no…
