Our little red beauties.

Hi all, I just thought I would pop in an extra post today as I would like to share some photos of the red squirrels who live in our woodland and come to our squirrel feeders in our garden.  One feeder is placed about six feet from our window so we get a fabulous view, the other is a little farther away.  Aren't they just fabulous little creatures?   We have a least six that we know of as they were dotted around the garden at the same time so we could count them.   How many more we have we are  not sure.   We are so......lucky to have these wonderful little creatures  in our garden lolls  !! 

We filled thier feeders up with a mixture of pine kernels, sunflower seeds and peanuts and they ate all the peanuts and left the rest lolls !!!      very fussy little squirels.  The peanuts cost us an arm and a leg as they bury them all over our garden and in my window boxes lolls  but boy are they worth it !!   We get so much pleasure just watching them.

By sharing these photos I hope I have given you some pleasure too.

                                                               Love and rainbows

      Hi Samantha, thanks for your lovely comment. Yes !!! a great deal of time is spent watching them, when their feeders are empty, they eat the nuts from the bird feeder and their antics are quite something to watch lolls !! they hang upside down and they pull the wires out of the bird feeder to get whole nuts out of the feeder!! Then they bury them in my window boxes, up-rooting the plants ! but we absolutely love them. Hope you are well. Might see you in the shop when I'm next in, maybe a week or so. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Hugs Jennifer xx

      Hi Mags, thank you, I'm no photographer lolls but the squirrel stayed there quite happily for me which enabled me to take the photos, because they are wild they are still quite timid, even though they know it is us who feed them ! Hugs xx
