Another beautiful day in Morgan Hill. Loquat season seemed to come and go more quickly than usual this year. I think it is because the squirrels have discovered that they like this prolific fruit. When I decided to harvest some loquats to perch on the frame of the mirror I could only find three of them. The squirrels have been harvesting most of the almonds for several years but this is the first time I've ever noticed them eating loquats. One day it was especially noisy in one of the loquat trees as the squirrels and a bluejay were scolding each other over just whose loquats they were. I stayed out of it.
