The squirrel run. by happypat

The squirrel run.

Our wall is constantly used as a road for the squirrels who live in the trees around the front garden & the food source which is the bird table.

We have regularly had as many as seven squirrels on the bird table at one time.
You should be able to see two here.

Three good things:
1. I bought some better clips for my hair, the kirby grips kept sliding out.
2. Ice cream cornets.
3. Schools in our area opened at last today!
Cheeky little 'monkeys'.. love your map of NZ but what happened to stewart Island?..

I can see two ! - fortunately the squirrel doesn't visit my garden too often !! perhaps Alfie's presence deters them , although he doesn't seem to bother as to what is in the garden !

@julzmaioro I was sold short Julz....no Stewart Island with it...I should complain! I bought it at that Lily Pad cafe near Cambridge years ago.

@beryl They can be rather tiresome as they pinch nuts & seeds out of the feeders all the time. Hanging by their tails, it doesn’t seem to bother the birds one bit.

Nicely timed capture

A nice shot

Great shot, are they greys?

@countrylassie Yes unfortunately Lesley.

That’s hysterical! You should put in a contraflow one day and see what happens lol!!

I love the squirrels in this shot. Very cool. We have a squirrel proof feeder, they try everything they can to get in it.

What fun to have them so regularly. Are they red or grey variety.
We have seen red ones in the beech trees several times but not for a while.
I suppose they are a nuisance if they interfere with the bird feeders!

@sarah19 sadly they are of the grey variety!

fabulous , mind you I should not like them as one squirrel has decided to dig up and steal my allium bulbs !!!

Ha ha the squirrel on the roof looks as though he is urging the other one on. We have possums in our garden and we hear them running over the roof and patio roof at night. We put out fruit and nuts for them and they are quite tame now.

Love your garden wall! Happy to hear school is open- they’re still trying to figure out how to do that here.

Haha! A perfect title for the wires! Looks to be a cozy scene.

Love this photo. Searched to see the second one. Till Babs mentioned the one on the roof! Well done.

It took me some time to see the squirrel on the roof but got him too, at last. Pretty shot.
