The squirrels usually eat my plums just as they ripen but this year they ate them all before they got ripe. I’ve never seen evidence of squirrels eating the neighbor’s tomatoes either, until now. Magpies (and other birds) are looking for any and all types of bugs to eat. After a brief rainstorm this year, I saw a bunch of ducks walking down a sidewalk gobbling up all of the worms that were trying to avoid excess water. Have not witnessed anything like this before that I am aware of.
