Tom PhillipsIt's one small step for a squirrel, one giant leap for squirrelkind, as these two squirrels appear to have decided to become astronauts.
The two squirrels may think they're on the Moon (note: they probably don't actually think that, as we're pretty sure squirrels don't have a concept of the Moon as anything other than 'the glowy thing in the sky that means you can spot foxes more easily'), but they're actually in a garden in Fareham, Hampshire.
Jane Roberts, the garden's owner, only put out the coconuts for the squirrels because they kept nicking the bird food she would leave out.
'I make a large hole in the coconut so that they can get into the flesh,' Roberts said.
'The first time I saw them feeding I nearly died laughing, they looked just like a pair of spacemen and even now I can't stop chuckling every time I see them.'
