Compost Plus
Mr. SqueeRoll
It seems we are not the only ones enjoying the compost heap!
This has become the favoured perch of one of our robins. I’m not sure how he’ll take to this intrusion.
Cute though, isn’t he?
Actually, there is another incumbant. A rat took up residence in the compost heap in late summer. Since the weather got cold, we have seen him darting out from under the shed to help himself to the bird food. A gardener friend pointed out that they do a grand job churning the heap.
That may all be academic now as the cat bought in a gift the other day…. Dropping it on the kitchen floor it skuttled off behind the washing machine. Please tell me, of all the cupboards in the kitchen, how to rats/mice etc. know that this is the one place we find the most difficult to get at them?
Haven’t seen or heard of it since and the cat seems to have lost interest. I reckon the smell should hit us around, let me see, Christmas Day?!
