Our Curious Squirrel Visitor
Look at this little guy! He is adorable and he visited our garden. It's getting cold here now and I think this little one was looking to increase his store of food before the real winter sets in and thought our garden may have some hidden treasures no other squirrel had found. He is a grey squirrel, not native to the UK but originally from America and certainly successful in colonising many areas and finding opportunities for food and shelter. Our native squirrel is a Red Squirrel, smaller and much more reddish in colour than a Grey Squirrel, but we do not see those anymore here, the nearest to us are in Northumberland and Scotland. We don't very often get squirrels in our garden, they seem to prefer the woodland nearby and the cemetery where there are huge mature trees with a good supply of nuts. This one however decided to try his luck. Cute Squirrel Mug by RaintreeDesigns Order custom mugs on zazzle. We do not encourage squir...
