Dead body found in my garden!!!!!

Thats right, you read the title correctly, I woke up this morning and went outside in the sun with my coffee, and in the middle of my lawn was a dead body.
I glad to say though, that it was not human.

It was infact a dead black squirrel. I have never seen a black squirrel before and was only aware of the war between the grey and red ones.
(my favourite ones are the flying squirrels they are just great). It must have been there a while as it was rock hard.

Anyway I have gotten rid of it now.

Here is a link about black squirrels. (N.B i am not a Daily Mail reader, link was given to me by my friend Google.)

Just thought I would share, apologies for the Sutter esque thread.

Thanks for that. I needed a bit of sentimentality after watching Gordon Ramsey catching puffins ,eating the heart raw after breaking their neck on TV last night...
