Something is nibbling at my nuts

Fresh Cobnuts.  Nikon D7000
11th September 2012

I noticed that although many of the cobnuts on the tree at the bottom of the garden are still green, there have been a few turned brown and fallen to the ground.

To make sure I get a good crop this year, I crawled around the bottom of the tree collecting the fallen.

To my horror, there was one nut which had been opened by some critter and devoured!

I will watch carefully and harvest as soon as possible to prevent more 'nutricide' by the raiding hoards (well probably 'Nick' the squirrel).
