Joe’s Guide to Attracting Wildlife to Your Patio
1. While your fiancee is filling up the bird feeders, suggest to her that she put the bag of remaining food underneath the patio table instead of bringing it inside like she normally does.
2. Don’t check the patio for a few days.
3. When you do check, notice bag is now tipped over and full of holes from various birds and squirrels having their fill.
4. Still leave bag outside.
5. Find a baby opossum rummaging through the bag at night.
Sorry, no photos of the opossum; he ran off as soon as he realized we were watching him. Here’s the resulting mess, however. Joe is going to sweep it up tomorrow.
Update: He came back to eat more.
