Still a lot of natural food around down our way , specially chestnuts 

Yes there has here never seen so many acorns etc and the woods I shoot is mainly beech , oak etc , one trail camera took 56 photos last month on a feeder but not one of a squirrel, so I’m happy to see a few returning only been 3 months since I shot the last one

Yerr, same here. I’m not even bothering setting any feeders up yet. I’ve picked a few off walking around but that’s all since last winter.

I have filled the feeders up but probably won’t start shooting them until mid November this year . I normally start last week of October. Leaves are still very green , grass still growing strong  , in fact looks like everything is still growing on all my permissions. Temperature down in Dorset tonight min 15 degrees absolutely crazy
