Is Our Boris Getting A Little On The Porky Side?

Oh my goodness ……..


…… not wishing to caste nastursiums aspersions, but, to me, from the kitchen window, it seems that ………
  


…….. but perhaps, Boris, our resident and much loved squirrel is getting a trifle on the rotund side. 


Kata, our also much loved neighbour may have been a little too generous with her scraps of late.


However, Nigel, playing devil’s advocate and sticking up for Boris (and Kata), has suggested that in this cold weather Boris is probably just fluffing up his feathers fur and that his increasing girth is merely a seasonal optical illusion ……
...... but then Darrell decided we best do some research ........


....seems like old Boris certainly needs his food ……. 


........ and instead of focusing on his waistline, we should be looking at helping Kata keep him (and any other of his friends) well fed too!

I hope old misery guts upstairs doesn't complain about feeding Boris.

After casting nasturtiums, did Nigel play devil’s advocate, or devil's advocaat, or devil's avocado?

Oh does that not apply to humans too - does that mean I can have an extra piece of chocolate cake perleeeze????

I miss squirrels, we used to get them in the garden at our previous house but none here which is sad - however it's swings and roundabouts as we never used to get urban foxes in our last garden but do here! JantheFan x
