Squirrels - an open thread

Ok, any reason for me to show this :)

This is the kind of photo that gives me a big smile. You have an idea. You buy a cheap dolls house trolley from Hong Kong off that well known action site. Wait 4 weeks for it to arrive. When it comes take it to the park, fill it with nuts and hope a Squirrel will come along. Well today the plan worked. Here's Mr Fluffy Tail noticing a great offer on nuts, even though he has a shopping trolley full of them :-D

OMG! Is That A 2 For 1 Offer On Nuts Over There by Skyline:), on Flickr
 
There you go

it's not your eyes - it is OOF or an unsteady hand

A grey squirrel helping itself to our bird feeders!

 
Do you have grey squirrels over there, Immo? Not sure if they've been taken over the Channel to mainland Europe after being brought here in the late 1800s.

No, we have only brown ones here. The brown may get quite dark, however, especially in Southern Germany.
 
Lucky you! The grey ones carry a nasty virus which tends to kill the reds as well as outcompeting the reds for the shared food resources.
 
How can you not like cute lil' ol' me?
