Just plain nuts



This picture of an interloper at Lake Minnewanka (no sniggering) has been round the world this week - the lil' fella was investigating the sound of the camera's autofocus.

Little known fact: grey squirrel is delicious, a little like rabbit. Neal furnished a fat one last autumn, stuffed with nuts. We roasted it with salt and pepper. Free-range, organic and in this country, unwanted. I bet red squirrel is tender though. Rare…
