| We must have something new to our yard because recently we are noticing pinecones stripped down to the core. They look a little like corn cobs. I have no idea what is eating them. I usually find a pile of them under a tree. Any ideas? |

| Squirrels eat them down to the core. |

| Really?? I must have a new squirrel to the area as I've never seen this before, or at least not piles of them. Maybe I've got one monster-sized squirrel. At least I can be glad it's eating the pinecones and not my garden. |

| Fox squirrels are the ones that chew up the cones to get to the seed in our area.They really like long leaf pine cones. Red |
