They live in abundance at our house, flaunting their cute little ways.
Almost every time we drive down the road, there is one doing its little
dance back and forth trying its best to get hit.

But we get back at them when the birdseed is out and they can't get to it.
I've seen them dive off the top of the house to try to catch their foothold
on the birdfeeder.

They are quite amusing when they gather all of our walnuts and aerate the
ground for us, giving us entertainment throughout the winter season.

The only reason they are still around at our house is that they outnumber
us, and no matter how I dislike them, I can't harm them. In my mind, they
are glorified (and I wonder why I use that word) rats.
