Squirrel!
For years, I've said that I'd know our neighborhood had recovered from our 2017 firestorm when I finally saw a squirrel in my yard. Squirrels require infrastructure: decent-size trees, stuff to eat, places to hide from predators. Barren land doesn't offer them much, but a suburban maze of fences and mature foliage is a squirrel paradise.
Today, 3,158 days after the fire, we saw a squirrel run along our backyard fence. So I guess we're all good now. Right?
(Photo is not of the squirrel we saw--it scampered away too fast--but it looked just like it.)
