Portrait of a pest

These villains steal a lot of the food we put out for the birds.  The are very clever and extremely agile so they get past all the anti squirrel cones and baffles that our neighbour puts on his feeding pole.  They are attractive creatures and I don't begrudge them a bit of bird food but less attractive is the effect they have had on our red squirrel population.  There are local projects attempting to remove the greys and to help the reds to re-establish.
