  Great pictures Kath.
  
  Here in the middle of Dover the squirrels run along the top of and then down the high chain link fence that separates the girls grammar from our garden to reach our bird table, I love watching them.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Until this year we have not seen squirrels in the garden (been here 40 years), there seem to be more about this year.

  We also seem to have a jackdaw 'lives in the garden', he has an injured wing, but has become friendly with a collared dove, and they go round the garden together, what one does, the other follows !

  Ah!! thats nice about the jackdaw and the dove
  
  We never see squirrels in our garden but there are lots in Connaught Park. My daughters always loved going there to feed them when they younger.
