Squirrel Licking Good


The evident is there. A row of holes going around the trunk of the tree with sap flowing down. It is not hard to figure out that the yellow-bellied sapsucker has just made his mark on the tree. Of course he is not the only one who want to get at the sap. This squirrel is licking away at the sap.

I have seen many other birds enjoy the fruit of the sapsucker. But, the squirrel will chase them away. He want the sap all to himself. I do not blame him though. I am sure it is squirrel licking good.

I look forward to seeing God's creatures interact with each other. Some times it is good, like this picture. Other times, it is a battle ground.

Life is like that. When we interact with each other, some times it is good. But, many times it is an all out right war.

We need to share in the bounty of the tree. Unlike the squirrel who chase others away, we need to back up and make room for others.
