Weird
When you put them near each other, it's clear these Hornsea Pottery squirrels are cast from the same mould.
Somewhat ironically, squirrels didn't live in Hornsea or the rest of Holderness until about thirty years after these ornaments were made, and there still are only a few pockets of them. The first live squirrel I saw was in York.
In Colchester, they live in our garden and feast on walnuts.
