That is strange, i keep meaning to read up on the habits of grey squirrels to see if there is any plausible explanation.....i liked that wee guy...he used to come right up to the hose to eat bread and nuts I would put out and the kids loved it.
Same here EDO he was a wee friend!
My wife who is a keen photographer of the local flora and fauna ( http://www.leavesnbloom.com/ ) knows where there was a colony on the Almondbank/Pitcairngreen side of the R. Almond and we will take a walk over there during Christmas to see if there is any trace of them.
There is a bounty for them so their existence is perilous to any so inclined.

there has been a distinct lack of animal modelling on this thread this year........i think we need to up our instances of this full proof forecasting procedure....... I have now not seen my grey squirrel in the garden for 5 months......... this tells me he is hibernating away because of impending snowmageddon or most likely the poor wee guy is broon bread!!
Strange EDO ours hasn't been seen for about the same length of time, that is too much of a coincidence.

Was at Carrubbers Church in Edinburgh this morning and it was very stormy going back to the car in Buccleuch Place at 13.30 having been calm walking to The Royal Mile at 11.00. Double decker buses barred from Forth Road Bridge with a 4omph speed limit.
Just over 3mm of rain in a few minutes at 15.10 (45.72mm/hr at 15.12) and the temperature nose-dived in minutes at exactly the same time from 9.3C to 6.9C.

Mrs HS has decided to give her Dobbies Christmas meal a miss tonight which is unprecedented when it comes to Mrs HS and food, Christmas food at that. Who needs weather station data, that alone is a most complete commentary on the inclement weather today!

It has been horridly dark here all day! And a lot of rain! The only positive from today is it hasn't been cold, but so horrible you wouldn't want to be outside anyways!
Maximum of 11.1C and 8.6mm of rain OTR. Talk about "the dark days before Christmas" that my dear Gran used to talk about!
