THE SNOW SQUIRRELS:
Last Sunday/Monday night the temperature reached -41.8 here in Winnipeg. With the windchill it was about -49. Hits you like a hammer when you begin the loading process in the morning. Yet...just as Molly was ready to hit the road a few hours later she looks up in the trees. There it was, the toughest squirrel in the universe. The temperature had "maybe" warmed up to -35 by then, but the little bugger was right there, gathering its nuts. No neighbourhood cat had better mess with that rodent. Totally amazing !
