Squirrels
Had the tree guys come round today to trim the one in the front garden, call it the Ivy tree because it is absolutely covered in Ivy but I leave it that way for the birds to nest in & overwinter, very popular tree for the birds. Anyhow they knocked on the door halfway through the operation to tell me that they had found a Squirrels nest in there with 4 yelps in? presume he meant young, told them to leave them alone & work around them. I was amazed that at this time of year Squirrels should be raising young, is this normal? I usually get squirrels nesting in the tree's in the back garden but in the spring, & I don't need anybody to mention tree rats & are better dead. I have a green garden & no I enjoy meat so not a veggie, just use a bit of logic for the visitors, Badgers, Foxes, Wood Pigeons, Muntjac, Squirrels, Doves, mice & the odd feral cat - easy solution - feed them so they have no interest in destroying the plants. Just amazed that Squirrels should raise young so late in the year. Barry -- Corporal Jones "Don't panic don't panic" Life will go on albeit somewhat reduced |
