Crispy duck sounds nice, as does the Onion Bhaji falvour. Not too keen on tree rats though.

that's been bugging me for weeks so I looked it up on Wiki:

Winter activity
Ground squirrels (like chipmunks and prairie dogs) live in ground burrows, and many become dormant in winter (hibernate). Tree squirrels genera contains most of the common, bushy-tailed squirrels in North America, Europe, Asia, and South America, which prefer the heights of the trees, as opposed to ground squirrels, and spend little time on the ground. Tree squirrels do not hibernate during the winter months, but they keep all activities to a minimum to conserve energy. Hence, they often seem to almost completely disappear during the winter months. Winter tree nests (called dreys) are often shared for warmth where tree squirrels keep warm by snuggling with their family members. When they sleep, they use their big furry tails to cover themselves to keep as warm as possible. A squirrel will come out now and then to search out for hidden stores of food. These stores of nuts and other items (like pine cones in the case of the red squirrel) are buried by a squirrel in the ground in late autumn, a period also spent on instinctive binge eating. Often the hidden nuts are not found at all and later may grow into new trees. Thus the activity of squirrels are in no small part responsible for a percentage of annual reforestation throughout the regions they inhabit.

I can't believe they used the technical term 'snuggling''.

[Sippo]

Squirrels are often see on menu's in some restaurants in the form of a pie.

Reminds me of the Roadkill Chilli someone cooked and brought to work one day for a chilli cook-off. Wasn't well received, and no I didn't try any.......
