I was enjoying this morning's gentle breakfast washing up, but probably spending more time looking out of the window than scrubbing the dishes, when I spotted some branches moving in a small yellow-green leaved tree on the other side of the road. Sure enough the disturbance was....
....the squirrel - but this was the first time we had actually seen him in a tree.
He was teetering along some of the small beaches to reach for something....
...which he picked and then stuffed into his mouth....
....before descending from the tree and running across the road to our neighbouring house.
We crossed the road and checked: the tree is a hazel, one of three planted along the road, all of which are laden with nuts, so he probably stuffed his mouth so full that, in crossing the road....
....he dropped some.
