New Neighbours

Today I discovered that the squirrels which visit our garden have started nest building in an old ivy covered tree opposite my spare bedroom window. I think only one was building the nest as three others were in the garden eating from the squirrel feeders. It was extremely difficult to capture it with leaves in its mouth as it moved very fast and went in and out of various entrances and exits. In the end I focused on one entrance and waited until it went through; this is the best I could get but does show the leaves in its mouth.
