CHEEKY CHAPPIE!


No knitting this week, as we've had family staying (baby Evie - smile, smile!) and I've had loads of end of year school stuff to get done. However, thought you might like to see this cheeky chappie, who is costing me a small fortune in sunflower hearts!!! He comes twice, sometimes three times, a day to feed and has got so brazen that he is no longer scared by my getting closer to snap a photo of him.


He seems to be able to eat an unusually large amount before quickly disappearing into the Magnolia tree; presumably to let his meal digest and take a nap!!!

They are bold little beasties, aren't they?! But they can't help it--they're hungry too... LOL! Cute... HAPPY SUMMER DAYS, Ros :o) ((HUGS))

Vermin with bushy tails if you ask me. The ones that come into our garden often break the bird feeders to get in or pull them off the hook. Of course if they were red that would be completely different.

There's a story teller here on CBC radio, Stuart McLean (Vinyl Cafe is the show) and he tells a story about a bird feeder and a squirrel that has my son in hysterics every time.... your pictures made me think of it again.
Do you have year-round schooling then? Seems quite late for summer holidays to not have arrived yet.
