A squirrel felt to its death while doing air acrobatics between the trees in the front yard. This untimely demise missed the garbage pickup by few minutes (next one is on Tuesday). Since keeping the animal corpse in a plastic bag inside the garbage can in 90 degrees weather for 4 days wouldn't be good, Max and I decided to bury it. Max researched the depth of the hole (1.5 feet) and confirmed the presence of decomposing worms and bugs in Southwest Connecticut soil. We selected a quiet place far from the well and the leaching field. Digging a hole wasn't too easy as the soil was full of rocks and roots. But it is all set now. RIP, the squirrel who wished it could fly...
