I want my cookie!

I love hanging out my office window during lunch, checking out the wildlife, and having a snack. Today I had just one Oreo Double Stuff Cookie left, and while I held it in my mouth, reaching out the window to fill the bird feeder, it crumbled and fell from my mouth to the ground. 

No ten-second rule around here. Nope. Only took this little one seconds to find the location of that sweet smell and my cookie was a gonner. 


The cookie was bigger than her head but she had no problem latching on, skurrying off, and running up the next tree over. 

After she thought she was far enough off the ground, time to change lanes. 

Everything was working out swell until she decided to hit the off-ramp. 

The cookie dropped about ten feet. She fell to the trunk of the tree, albeit bounding from branch to branch, and before I knew it she'd found that Oreo and was off into the woods to stash it no doubt. 

No, I do not feed the squirrels sweets. I would have much rather have eaten that cookie myself. 

But bless her heart, I'll bet she is at my window bright and early in the morning. 

Before you judge the horribly blurry images...have you ever tried to focus on a moving squirrel making off with a stolen Oreo? 

Yeah, that's what I thought :-)
