28/366/4045 (July 9, 2019) - Fox Squirrels on a Summer Day at the University of Michigan - July 9th, 2019
Nice early Summer day in Ann Arbor. Saw lots of fox squirrels out and about in Ann Arbor on Tuesday July 9th, 2019 at the University of Michigan. So all sorts of things going on. I was about to see "Patches O'Houlihan" today - and was able to give her the second medicated pecan that she needs. I did not see her yesterday and was nervous. Patches is a squirrel who had lost most of her fur because of mange on the Law Quad. I reached out to the Friends of Wildlife Michigan and they connected me with someone who has worked up some medicated pecans for me to feed the squirrels. I did see "Justin" - named for the youngest team member on the dodgeball team that Patches coaches - and he has both treatments. I did see "Steve the Pirate" again. He has something on his left paw - and a bald patch on his left side and gets his second pecan on Wednesday. So Patches is not that pretty - but hey - it feels good to do something good for a squirrel friend. I am fairly certain that they are related - they hang out together and I think Justin is Patch's baby.
