SUN TEA: The squirrels rise to the challenge

I plunked three tea bags into a Mason jar of water and set it on the porch railing to brew, even though I was warned that it was a precarious spot to make sun tea.
"Oh, please," I scoffed.
Apparently one of my backyard squirrels took that as a challenge. When I went out to retrieve my tea later that afternoon, the jar was lying on the deck, completely empty. The edge of a nearby plastic pot was cracked off, as if by, say, a falling beaker. The saucer that had been covering the jar was under the deck by some ferns, and the tea bags were strewn about and perfectly dry.
Only one of the many squirrel victories in my backyard.
