Just on the other side of the cedar hedge in the Arboretum is a row of mountain ash trees. They, along with the ones in the garden, were attracting lots of attention from crows and robins. The crows were also competing with squirrels for the acorns on the ground. A bit of a cheat really, as the poor squirrels do all the work, and the crows make away with the harvest. The squirrels sit up high in the oaks and nip off twigs with leaves and acorns. After a good many have been clipped, they rush down the tree to harvest them.
