squirrels but would allow the other birds (Most of which seem to

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Hold me back! (speaking from Formby, one home of the beautiful
endangered red squirrel....) Fetch ma gun!!

Heh, nothing wrong with squirrel casserole. You need a few though

I had heard, on this ng many years ago about eating squirrel but I was
never sure if it was a joke or not. My neighbour tells me she has
eaten squirrel. Seriously, have you eaten squirrel and what does it
taste like if you have?

I have indeed eaten squirrel. David shoots and if what he kills is at all
edible, I cook it . Well, it tastes like...er... squirrel Milder than
rabbit if you have eaten that.

I have a few recipes for squirrel if you are interested, but as I have said
elsewhere, I usually go down the garlic, onion, red wine type road. I a the
similar one for rabbit too.
