Last year, I saw a squirrel carring a cob. It stopped about 10' away, took a nibble and then threw it away.
Did not think ask what variety, as obviously not a very good one.
If there's nothing wrong with me, maybe there's something wrong with the universe!

When you think of the size of a mouse and then the size of it's tummy. One corn seed must be a full days meal for it.

I know they run off with them... as one came up in the border of the big greenhouse.. a long way from the planting area, where he had obviously dropped it...  ::)

I had some cardboard sleeves round my celary and found stashes of peas inside when I dug the celery.
