Ah, "nature, red in tooth and claw". Those bastard squirrels will eat anything - they are a particular danger to birds' nests in Spring, as they will eat eggs and chicks. As I have always said, they might be photogenic, but basically they are rats in borrowed fur coats! Vile creatures. Jx
I read this yesterday and then????? Made a comment? Or closed the window, hoping to banish the image from my thoughts. I am disgusted! Not knowing the inner lives of squirrels, I don't know if it was having a Se7en "What's in the box" moment or a Valheim "I conquered" moment.
WHAT!?!?! Was it a zombie squirrel!??! We must both have squirrels on the brain. I just posted about Nutmeg!
