Squirrel Carries Dead Mouse Up A Tree

I don't know. I just didn't know they ate mice! I was outside on the top deck and our resident squirrel was moving across the branches in front of me. He/she had a mouse in its mouth. Yes...it was dead and hanging there tightly held as a prise. I am reporting this so environmentalists who read this blog can reclassify these rodents as omnivores. Just doing my duty.
