I just love wee squirrels, cute, fun to watch but greedy lol
We have 3 one really shy squirrel and 2 much bolder braver ones .
We have put out some monkey nuts in a bowl for them .
Watch them rummaging in the bowl choose their nut and sit
with them in their paws happily munching away on them .
Even saw one pass a nut to another !
Their cheeks full of nuts and a look of sheer sublime on their faces .
Chucking their empty shells all over the place - like messy kids .
They sit on our large stone bench under our silver birch trees .
Then they will get onto the bird bath and have a drink .
We also have 3 robins and 9 yep (nine) pigeons come 3 times daily .
Every day they are here 7- 8.30am, 1-1.30pm, 4-4.30pm
Quite amazing with the regularity of them too .
Plus a
very territorial blackbird that marches around bossing
and scaring all and sundry off its property !
It sits on our fence - peering into our reading room .
Only a tiny blackbird but it certainly does rule the roost and gardens .
