Dead French Guys and Rodents

So we have one squirrel in particular that frequents our backyard, and spends quality time hanging out on our decks. In fact, he must think he's a cat in the same way Truman thinks he's a squirrel since he'll lay across the upstairs deck's bannister in the same way that Truman will lay in the window a few feet away. What's amusing about this guy is that he has a really scraggly tail, is really skinny...and has an amazingly big package. Which you can see when he stretches to get up on the roof, right at eye level as you innocently try to walk through the dining room. For this, I have named him Balzac.
