Keep off my pears!

After a very busy few days with guests I managed to spot this beautiful squirrel in our orchard. I know that many people think they are a pest but because we are really a little oasis with trees in an area surrounded by fields we never get over run with squirrels. This fact makes them seem very special to me and this cheeky one was eating a dropped pear from a tree in our orchard. You have to admit  he looks cute!
