Red Squirrel

Although it could almost be called a black squirrel.  When I drew the living room curtains this morning,there he was, sat on the feeder nibbling away at a "monkey nut"  (peanuts in their shells for those who aren't used to the term).  Soon after he jumped down and started working his way round the grass.  Not the best of shots but different from the usual on the feeder/bird table shots.

As our season at the Lodge is underway we had to go and clean and prep everything for today's guests.  Then packing and getting the car ready for our trip down to Sheffield for a few days Grandchildren wrangling minding.
