Highfield squirrel

I'm a squirrel living by the lake next to University Park at the University of Nuttingham. I train humans to give me treats and I'm a black belt in dog evasion.

Enormous xylophone in the woods of Kyushu, Japan plays a Bach tune when a wooden ball rolls down each "key." An impressive piece of engineering.

@BantshireUni I was going to say "we have one!" but then remembered I'm actually thinking of @UPsquirrel , which is not quite it. I get mixed up.

In the office office. Different level of weird. Someone else’s desk. Not nuts to be found. Don’t fancy eating sanitiser wipes.
And there is apparently only “one way”. Quite profound @UniofNottingham @UoN_ITE @UoNSoE
