White squirrels I've never seen and I think they are cuter than grackles.<br />I don't mind the doves so much but sparrows, swallows, doves, red-wing black birds and of course the ones I detest-the Grackles. They killed so many of my smaller birds this year. I had to stop buying no-mess food due to cost but sometimes get tired of the weeds.<br />Thanks for sharing...have a wonderful day.<br />NoreenNanaNor'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608980502430055753noreply@blogger.com
