Do I really deserve this?

I have a plague of squirrels (is that the correct collective noun, I wonder?)

Last autumn we had masses of acorns in the garden and all the squirrels gorged themselves all winter and all spring on those. Now it seems the acorns must be finished and they have decided to raid my feeder.

I have put up a baffle but I know that it is not going to hold them off for long. Here are the little devils.



Of course, when the regular hoover up'ers of the feeding station come along, the squirrels do allow them to share!



But, look - butter would not melt in it's mouth.....



They are actually better than anything on television these days. However, when they get past my baffle (just a matter of time), I am going to be so mad
