My yard squirrels are enjoying the bounty of my fall flower box.

All my front porch summer flowers passed on, so I replaced them with small pumpkins and decorative gourds for an autumn display. My squirrels discovered the seeds and are having a ball and gorging themselves on the gourds' insides. They are eating the flesh, as well. I can watch them through my porch window, as can the cat and dog. It's entertainment for all.
