Red Squirrels


Heres a couple of pics of one of the Red Squirrels that visit the garden to be fed.
Sorry not the best quality...but you get the idea.
I was late up this morning so he was sitting waiting on me for his hazelnuts

Re: Red Squirrels


They just arrived back in August Pat, two of them so far, and now they are there all the time. I think putting a feeding box up has made them set up house. It just a small wood at the top of the garden but it has Oak and Beech and fir trees. It would be nice if they stayed. Maxwell the big Siamese boys sits under the tree watching them at the food box..and he howls at them, but it doesn't seem to bother them at all

The tree with the Squirrel Box
