Thank you for all your kind comments.
We do get squirrels in the garden occasionally, but that is actually a teeny field mouse. They came back and forth until the feeder was empty, so either they had a huge brood somewhere or they were building up a stash!!
We have a very solidly built brick shed in the garden and one winter I had a very large bag of peanuts for the feeder on the bench. I went in to refill the feeder to find an empty bag with a hole in it and all the brown skins of the peanuts scattered over the bench. Not a peanut in sight!! I have no idea where they got in as it was a recently built shed with all the possible gaps filled, but I guess if you're a determined enough little mouse with a taste for peanuts anything is possible!!
