I'll begin this blog with a cute critter seen at West Guth Park recently. I haven't seen many of them here of late, and I thought maybe the city eradicated them. But, while watching the Monk Parakeets in the neighboring palm trees, I spotted one peering out of its burrow!! They're cute. Probably destroying the landscaping of the park grounds, but still, they are entertaining to say the least. They are the Mexican Ground Squirrel, a native to Old Mexico, and only seen in the state of Texas in the United States...
