Hi all. Just back from a few days in the New Forest. We met this little chap during one walk. I think if we had a big garage Sue might have done a spot of rustling Laughing

We are in the 'Forest' at the moment, at Setthorns, been here a week.
We have a bird feeder out and, as always, amazed at the variety of species we are seeing. The nuthatches appear to be the most aggressive, even seeing off the robins. Jays go nuts on peanuts and pied woodpeckers love the fat balls.
We have noticed that some grey squirrels have one or even both ears missing or partly missing. Anyone got any idea why?
The weather has gradually improved during the week, from wet and windy to chilly but bright. Its surprising just how quickly the ground dries out here, some of the paths are already turning dusty. We will be leaving tomorrow to make way for the Easter weekenders, the wardens are forecasting a busy weekend.
Apologies for pic quality...through window on phone camera.

Not a chance! Sue is an old hand with horses and the ones we saw were very content grazing where they were. The one pictured was about 30 feet away as we did not want to disturb him from his lunch.
There is a sign that reports that 8 animals have been killed this year by motorists, yet the speed limit is still 40 mph. I drove well below that and slowed further when we saw any horses or cattle, not entirely in order to get a better look at them!
Wish there were more places left like this.
