Before going to bed, Qin Jianghe set the alarm clock for 4 o'clock in the morning. The alarm clock was woken up before dawn the next day. He gently pushed Ye Xun, who was still sleeping next to him, "Wake up, let's go feed the squirrels. If we go late, we may be late." Can't see it anymore."

When Ye Xun heard that she was going to feed the squirrels, she immediately perked up, "Go and wash your face first, and I'll change my clothes right away."

Qin Jianghe kissed Ye Xun lightly on the forehead, turned over and got out of bed.Shirtless and only wearing a big trousers, Ye Xun walked into the bathroom. Seeing Qin Jianghe walking into the bathroom, Ye Xun got up and looked for underwear.

It was already autumn and it was very cold in the morning and evening. After the two of them washed up, Qin Jianghe changed Ye Xun into thicker sportswear before going up the mountain. Qin Jianghe led the way by holding Ye Xun in one hand and the mobile phone with the flashlight turned on in the other. When we reached the mountain, it was already daylight. Qin Jianghe found a forest with tall pine trees and threw the chestnuts given by Uncle Li yesterday under a tree that was relatively open. Then he took out the melon seeds and sprinkled them near the chestnuts. After he finished, Qin Jianghe took Ye Xun to a nearby tree and waited.

Ye Xun rubbed her cool hands and breathed into her palms, and asked, "Are we too close? Should we go further?"

Qin Jianghe held Ye Xun's hands in his palms, "No, those little guys don't take people seriously because of their agility. People in the mountains haven't caught these wild animals these years, so they're not afraid of people."

The mid-autumn festival is near and there is no sunshine in the woods. It is very cool in the woods. Although Ye Xun has put on autumn sportswear under the care of Qin Jianghe, it is still a bit cold. Qin Jianghe noticed that Ye Xun was shivering and hurriedly took off his sportswear jacket Put on Ye Xun.Ye Xun didn't want Qin Jianghe to freeze, so she turned around and refused, "I'm not cold, you can dress yourself."

Qin Jianghe stubbornly moved Ye Xun over and put the coat on her body, "I'm shivering no matter what I do. I'm wearing a long-sleeved T-shirt underneath. It's not cold. Be good, put it on."

Ye Xun obediently did not refuse, and put Qin Jianghe's sportswear jacket on outside. "If you're cold, you can tell me, and I'll give it to you when I'm warm."

Qin Jianghe didn't agree. He found a relatively smooth stone and carefully opened it. When he saw that there were no strange things under the stone, he moved it under the tree and put it away.Sitting on the rock by himself, he hugged Ye Xun and let her sit on his lap, "Won't this ease the situation?"

Ye Xun sat quietly in Qin Jianghe's arms, resting his head on Qin Jianghe's shoulder, looking at the gradually brightening sky, listening to the insects in the forest, and said softly, "This feeling is so good, I really hope it can last forever."

Qin Jianghe smiled and kissed Ye Xun on the cheek, "If you think it feels good, I'll come over tomorrow with a tent and let's go camping?"

Ye Xun thought for a while, "I don't want it anymore. The autumn here is too cold sooner or later, and the woods are still humid. It's too cold without a sleeping bag, and it's too stuffy to use a sleeping bag. It's really not suitable for camping."

Ye Xun is no stranger to camping, and said very knowledgeable.

Qin Jianghe thought about it, and felt that what Ye Xun said was quite reasonable, so he didn't mention the camping thing again.

After waiting for about [-] minutes, the sky was already bright, and Qin Jianghe's patience was gradually fading. When he was about to use his skills, Ye Xun suddenly found a gray thing jumping down from the tree quickly. Ye Xun hurriedly used the He poked Qin Jianghe with his elbow, and whispered, "Look, it looks like a squirrel."

Qin Jianghe carefully distinguished, "It's a squirrel. Let's go there after it has eaten. As long as it's not too close, it won't run away."

The little thing watched the surroundings vigilantly, as if he would run away if there was any sign of trouble.Perhaps Qin Jianghe and the two had no malicious intentions. The gray squirrel just looked in the direction of the two of them for a while and then ignored it.He picked up a chestnut by himself.

Seeing the squirrel starting to eat chestnuts, Ye Xun excitedly swayed in Qin Jianghe's arms, "Look, it's starting to eat chestnuts, when shall we go there?"

Qin Jianghe reassured Ye Xun, "Wait for a while. They have to store food for the winter at this time. If there is too much to eat, they will take it home and store it. So don't worry, it will come back even if it leaves."

"Oh..." Ye Xun obediently stared at the pine tree's every move with wide eyes.Even breathing was a little lighter, for fear of scaring it.

Qin Jianghe stared at the movement of the squirrel and saw that it had eaten up a chestnut. When he started eating melon seeds, he patted Ye Xun in his arms and said in a low voice, "Okay, it should be almost full by now, be vigilant. Very low."

The two approached slowly.This pine tree has a slender body, which is very small against the soft dense long hair. The body hair is dark brown, with big and bright eyes, long ears with a tuft of hair at the tip of the ears, and a long and fluffy tail on the back. Rolled backwards, the two front feet are holding melon seeds, and they are gnawing on them with their sharp front teeth.To be honest, this little guy is not good-looking, but Ye Xun likes it very much, "It's so cute, look at its big and fluffy tail, it must feel good to the touch."

"This thing is very clever, and it will run away if you get too close, so it's basically impossible to touch it if you don't catch it." Qin Jianghe analyzed the feasibility for Ye Xun.

"No need to catch, I'm just talking." Ye Xun didn't want to disturb the lives of wild animals.

As the two talked, they had gotten closer to about 10 meters. Qin Jianghe pulled Ye Xun back, "It's ok, just stay here. If you get closer, you might run away." Observing and admiring.At this time, it had already picked up the second melon seed and gnawed it quickly with its front teeth.The second melon seed was quickly wiped out.According to its size, one chestnut and two melon seeds are enough for it to eat, but it didn't stop moving.Still filling his mouth with melon seeds.Probably want to store melon seeds in my own warehouse.

The gray squirrel's favorite food is still pine nuts.When it comes to picking pine nuts, squirrels are good at it. No matter how tall the trees are, they can catch pine cones wherever they grow.When picking, they first bite off the mature pine cones to the ground, and then run down from the tree. Like primates, they use their forefeet to peel off the scales of the pine cones, crush the pine nut shells, and take out the pine nut kernels. Interestingly, squirrels When frightened, it will not put down its food easily, but will run away with a pine cone in its mouth.

The sense of smell of squirrels is extremely developed, and it can accurately distinguish the reality of pine nuts and kernels. All the seeds abandoned by squirrels on the top of the pine cone are empty. Know.Squirrels also have the instinct to store food. When the pine nuts are ripe in autumn, the squirrels run around with pine nuts in their mouths and transport them to a safe place for hiding. A few or a dozen of them are buried in the ground as food for overwintering.Although the ground is covered with snow in winter, squirrels can still find the hidden food without any difficulty, and there are some missing food.But just because it is buried in the ground and cannot be found, it helps the diffusion and propagation of pine seeds.
