Is it a MOLE ? Is it a VOLE ? No, it's XXX
Hello all
In (what I loosely describe as) the lawn in our orchard a lot of approx. golf-ball-sized holes have appeared in little clusters. There are no mounds of earth; so I assume these are not being made by moles or voles. Can anyone suggest what creatures are responsible ? These creatures don't appear to be damaging the younger trees. However, they did almost damage me when one foot of the ladder sank into such a hole and down I came. Best regards from Ray |

Squirrels are leaving holes in my lawn of roughly that size, though not in clusters. Chris -- Chris J Dixon Nottingham UK Have dancing shoes, will ceilidh. |
