Squirrels

Our walk to the village this morning was through cold, damp mist which....

....drifted into the woods leaving everything, including the going underfoot, unpleasantly slippery.

This weather did have a positive side, however, for Squirrel Alley was busy....

....with squirrels which seemed reluctant to run away. The reason for this unusual behaviour soon became evident.

Someone in the adjacent houses had filled their feeders with hazel nuts.
