Tyler Miller: Squirrel Master

Don't doubt it for a minute. The squirrels will obey me, after I have gained their trust.
Let's just say I offered a squirrel an offer he couldn't refuse....

A Granola Bar

Yes, that's right. I have a squirrel pieces of a granola bar. And he loved every minute of it. I baited him over, dropped the piece of granola in front of him and he snatched it up like...like...squirrels snatch things up.

As soon as he grabbed it, he sat down on his rear end, curled his tail, and went to work. I think he enjoyed it a little too much...but that's okay. Even squirrels should get a little special treatment every once and awhile. (Except the one that caused the campus to go into a 3 hour long power outage, but that squirrel paid his price..)

So I am glad I could make a difference today in a squirrel's life. I hope he runs back to his tree, tells his squirrel friends about me, and one day I will walk to class...surrounded by my squirrel army. But be warned though, the squirrels are feisty creatures and it takes time to earn their trust. Lookie here.

Watch yourself. Stay tuned for more squirrel updates.
