Hanging on.

I took some seed and hazelnuts along to treat our furry and feathery friends. Then I sat quietly and waited and was well rewarded with plenty of visitors.

The Squirrels and Nuthatches were quite adept at hanging upside down on their long sharp claws to reach the nuts.

Then they scurried off to pierce the shell and eat the contents on their favourite perches.

While Ratty waited underneath for falling tit-bits.  IMG_0193 Ratty

Yet another warm and pleasant day spent here in the countryside, what bliss!
