    I could do with borrowing the catty-bird to catch the ratty-bird that visited my bird table last week - I was a little too freaked out to take a photo of it AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!! Fascinating to watch as rat ran up leg of bird table and sat watching me as it ate birds nuts - just wish it wasn't about 2 yards away from my patio doors. Poor birds will be hungry for a while now and Mr Ratman from the council will be visiting my garden this week!!

    Ooooohhh, I've seen something similar on a bird-table, the noir version with the long fluffy tail.

    :D There's good eating on one of those, y'know.
