I heard a crunching noise yesterday as I came out of my office building for my morning walk around the Texas Capitol. I looked around, couldn’t see the source. Then I looked down. Oh . . .

Yummy flag pole!

Yes, indeed. The squirrel was gnawing at the base of the flag pole. Both flag pole bases have squirrel scars (and holes).

Two flag pole bases are better than one!

I’m thinking that this guy must have had a squirrel problem, all those years ago.
