It's not just the birds which take advantage of the plentiful food on offer in our garden.
We now have a rather cute Wood Mouse and a less cute Grey Squirrel who raids all the food and even ate part of the plastic feeder in his efforts to release more of the Sunflower Mix.
The Grey Squirrel doesn't take 'no' for an answer and will stand his ground even when we get close to him to move him off the food!
The Squirrel's acrobatics are amazing. He is capable of death-defying feats to reach impossibly high feeders with ease!
His more destructive antics include chewing through the plastic on the feeders to release more Sunflower Hearts.
