What's this?

Hi

My mum found the attached things under a large garden ornament - they are about the size of a garden pea, and there were around 40 of them. Any ideas?

 

They look like Hazenuts that have been eaten, pos my a mouse/vole, but i could be wrong

 

Agree with Jiffy, I think they're empty hazelnut shells. The nut inside will have been eaten by a mouse, possibly even a dormouse.

 

I agree, eaten by some rodents...now I understand the use of curved teeth

 

I knew i should have gone to the Dentist!!

 

Can I take advantage of your 'What's this? thread please @Ariettyspaghetti ?

For all you fishy members......what's this please?

 

I can't spell Axylotyl

 

Dormice make that classic round hole whereas other mice split the nuts

 

It's Axolotl Zigs, but the head doesn't look the right shape to be that.

I wondered why I was getting pics from the Permian when I did an image search

 

Well done and thank you Yvonne. I'll pass the link on to my husband who wanted to know what it was.

 

Now what have I said about letting him pick up old trouts??
