Squirrel on the Seeds

Thursday 23rd May 2013

Look who was hanging upside down in the forsythia tucking into the sunflower seeds in one of our feeders yesterday morning.

Not a very clear photo because it was taken through the dining room window!

He or she stayed for a few minutes then had a look round the garden and disappeared off in to the trees.  This morning he or she came back again (it's on to a good thing I reckon) and stayed upside down feeding for about 10 minutes.  I know I have said it a fair bit lately but this is another visitor we don't see very often, maybe once a year if that.  Although we live on a housing estate, there are large oak trees dotted around and woodland is not far away as the crow flies, so I wonder how far this squirrel has come from his/her home?
