Friday at the Flicks - Grey Squirrel

FATTHEF

After Penny dispatched last year's visiting grey squirrel I hoped to be free of them. That was not to be. Recently another one has made daily visits to the bird feeders. This one is easily recognised by the bald patch in the middle of its tail:



I keep scaring it away as they are such destructive creatures. I have already had to throw away one seed feeder. That one had plastic hole covers and perches which the squirrel just chewed through to enlarge the hole. Also with Penny's hunting instinct she would go charging after it at full speed with no regard to her own safety. I don't want another large vets bill if she damages herself again.

  1. They are a nuisance. The only sure fire remedy is a shotgun.
