The Squirrel's Nuts

I think The Owner may be having a strong word with Squirrel when he next emerges from his hibernation which, judging by the temperatures out there already this evening, ought not to be for some while. So maybe The Owner might have forgotten about today's little discovery by then. I have noticed during the late summer and autumn how Squirrel fervently hides little heaps of nuts all over the garden in case he wakes during the winter and fancies a quick chomp. Indeed last summer three chestnut trees appeared in the middle of the lawn as a result of just such an activity. They were doing well I thought and nearly high enough to have a wee up when Small Boy cut The Owner's lawns for him. Today, being another chilly morning in The Owner's world he went upstairs for an extra jumper before venturing outside. Grabbing last years favourite fleece to put on, a large quantity of hazel nuts, chestnuts and acorns tumbled across the floor, presumably deposited there by Squirrel during the summer and autumn. I am thinking that maybe The Owner might not be so keen to show off by leaving his bedroom window open in all weathers now.
