NEWS - Grenfell Tower Unglück: Demonstrationen vor dem Ratshaus in Chelsea
July 19, 2017 - London, UK - London, UK. 19th July 2017. Grenfell Tower survivors and supporters at the council meeting at Kensington Town Hall give the firm message to councillors 'Resign Now!'. A couple of hundred protesters attended the council meeting, though some survivors were kept outside until the residents representative refused to speak until they were allowed in and there were many empty seats, while hundreds more watched the proceedings on a giant screen outside, erupting with fury at the complacency and paternalism of some councillors and calling for the council to resign as they had shown themselves unable to deal with the disaster, which feel came about as a result of the councils failure to take reasonable care of the safety of people in social housing. Earlier there was a noisy protest outside, with two sets of speeches a short distance apart as some housing campaign groups involved with Grenfell had been refused permission to speak by the main Justice for Grenfell campaign on political grounds.

Pictured: A red squirrel escapes the rain as it holds a miniature blue and white umbrella above its head. Photographer Geert Weggen snapped photos of the woodland rodent as it clutched onto the umbrella and sat in a tiny bathtub.
The squirrel was actually sniffing out peanuts hidden under the umbrella's spokes, but managed to avoid the rain in doing so. Mr Weggen set up the scenes and hid peanuts to attract inquisitive squirrels who often visit his garden, in Bispgarden, Sweden. SEE OUR COPY FOR MORE INFORMATION.

Red Squirrel (Sciurus Vulgaris) eating a nut in a forest
Red Squirrels in the Cairngorms National Park, Scotland - 10 Nov 2015
Wildlife photographer Drew Buckley captured these cute and characterful 'wee Reds' on a recent trip north to Scotland. Red Squirrels are native to our British woodland and Scotland's Caledonia forest is one of their last strongholds. For the past 50 years the red squirrel population has been decimated by its cousin the grey squirrel. Once numbering in their millions, today there are believed to be just 120,000 left in the UK - though recent research has suggested that they are starting to stage a comeback. Venturing into their territory, Drew was able capture the species preparing themselves for the winter. Blending in with the autumnal scenes around them, these busy squirrels are seen foraging for food to help get them through the cold months.

FEATURE: Vorräte für den Winter anschaffen
A family of squirrels appear to be getting ready for a long cold winter by taking it in turns to distribute their nuts around the garden using a wheelbarrow.
The three red squirrels all grabbed hold of the handles of the tiny 20cm-long wheelbarrow, big enough to hold a dozen or so pecan nuts.
Photographer Geert Weggen, 48, is visited by the squirrels regularly and has watched two of them closely over the last two years.
However, he recently spied them lurking near the small copper wheelbarrow in his garden which was full of nuts.
Sitting three metres away, Geert watched them closely from his home in Bispgarden in central Sweden.

Red squirrel finds a hazelnut hidden in a mini Christmas Tree
Squirrel helps himself to nut present on mini Christmas Tree at the Escot Estate, Ottery St Mary, Devon, Britain - 10 Dec 2014
This cheeky little squirrel is just nuts about Christmas - after finding a tasty present under his tree. The red squirrel got into the festive spirit when staff at The Escot Estate in East Devon played a little bit of hide-and-seek with a hazelnut and a miniature Xmas tree. And it certainly didn't take this hungry critter - who must have thought that all his Christmases had come at once - long to sniff out the treat. Run by animal lover John-Michael Kennaway, the 1,200-acre estate is something of a safe haven for the threatened red squirrel species. According to experts, if efforts aren't carried out to halt the dramatic decline in numbers then red squirrels could become extinct within ten years.

It looks like a scene from 1980 cult comedy classic Caddyshack, but this cheeky gopher-like ground squirrel is very real - and not too shy to appear in a selfie.
Stacey Wallace, 28, found herself with an unusual photo opportunity when the rodent popped out of its hole in search of nuts.
Stacey, from Vancouver, shot the hilarious pictures at Lightning Lake in British Columbia's Manning Park in Summer.
She explains: "In order to get the selfie I laid on the ground metres away from the squirrel and slowly crawled towards him until I got close enough so that we were both in the shot. I took all the photos with my iPhone front camera."

Scottish Squirrels are seemingly nuts for nuts.
Wildlife photographer Ed Brown captured what can only be described a rodent robbery on a visit to Queen Elizabeth Forest Park in Scotland.
Two red squirrels were perched on a nut feeder, but despite there being dozens of nuts available one cheeky critter was intent on stealing its pals treat.
After a lot of tussling - including a couple of defensive "slaps" in the face - the naughty nut-stealer on the right was successful.
Ed explains: "There must be over a hundred nuts in that box behind them but for some reason the guy on the right just had to have the nut his mate had, even if he did take a right hook for it!
"The one on the left gave a couple of defensive slaps, but the nut is dropped and the squirrel on the right is the victor.
"Funnily, the one that dropped the nut just helped himself to another from the feeder."

Scottish Squirrels are seemingly nuts for nuts.
Wildlife photographer Ed Brown captured what can only be described a rodent robbery on a visit to Queen Elizabeth Forest Park in Scotland.
Two red squirrels were perched on a nut feeder, but despite there being dozens of nuts available one cheeky critter was intent on stealing its pals treat.
After a lot of tussling - including a couple of defensive "slaps" in the face - the naughty nut-stealer on the right was successful.
Ed explains: "There must be over a hundred nuts in that box behind them but for some reason the guy on the right just had to have the nut his mate had, even if he did take a right hook for it!
"The one on the left gave a couple of defensive slaps, but the nut is dropped and the squirrel on the right is the victor.
"Funnily, the one that dropped the nut just helped himself to another from the feeder."

Squirrel drinks a nut smoothie using a straw, Stubbington, Hampshire, Britain - 01 Mar 2012

Squirrels Go Nuts Over Unusual Smoothie
This cheeky creature is simply nuts about his unusual smoothie.
The peckish grey squirrel seemed overjoyed when he managed to get his paws on the peanut flavoured drink.
Allison Carrick from Stubbington in Hampshire came up with the idea of the nutty treat after getting a smoothie maker for her birthday.
Now, she says, the squirrels that visit her garden love the smoothie and have even learnt to drink it through a straw.
Alison said: "When I first offered them the drink they just lapped it up from a dish but then I put out a sundae glass and a straw to see what they would do.
"To my amazement before long they were sucking away to their hearts content.
"Its great fun to watch them and it keeps them off the bird table".

Squirrel attempts to eat hanging peanut kebab, Fareham, Hampshire, Britain - Dec 2012
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Mike Walker / Rex Features (1550603k)
Acrobatic Squirrel Munches On Peanut 'Kebab'
Just how many ways are there to eat a kebab? Well, if you're this crafty squirrel the answer is 'many'.
The acrobatic creature went to extreme lengths to gets its paws on some tasty peanuts when he spotted them hanging in a garden in Fareham, Hampshire.
In fact, the persistent grey squirrel was determined not to give up until it had stolen every single treat from the suspended nut 'kebab'.
His dexterity meant it was a case of squirrel 1, homeowner 0.
According to Sue Bellamy, every time she put peanuts out for the birds they were consistently stolen by squirrels.
She says: "As soon as I put the nuts out on the table they where gone. The squirrels just picked them up and off they went.
"Then my husband came up with the kebab idea so I threaded the peanuts onto an old knitting needle and hung them".
However, as Sue is first to admit, her idea hasn't quite worked, with the determined squirrels patiently working out how to get their prize.
She adds: "The squirrels now take ages to work out the best way to eat the kebab".
