Naughty squirrel hilariously falls over after stealing snacks
A squirrel who tried to keep his eye on some nearby birds, as well as on his stash of nuts, learned the hard way that he was not very good at multitasking.
Squirrels are wily little creatures who will do whatever it takes to secure a stash of food for themselves. Kristy Hiltz of Ontario, Canada found this out when she set up a bird feeder in her backyard.
Originally intended for crows, Kristy noticed that the squirrels in her neighbourhood were quick to come into the yard to gather some of the peanuts she had put out.
Kristy set up a camera near the feeder hoping to capture the crows at feeding time, and instead caught a naughty squirrel red-handed.

The squirrel scurries up to the feeder and grabs a peanut.
Aware that the crows could come back at any time, the squirrel munches on the snack while looking up at the sky. He quickly realises that chewing while looking out for crows is not easy!
The squirrel gets dizzy and falls backwards, just managing to cling on and avoid falling to the ground.
That's what you get for trying to steal a crow's food!
The squirrel would have been better off if he had stayed grounded and focused on getting his own food elsewhere. Let his behaviour be a lesson: when you're trying to get a snack - or reach a goal - keep your eye on the prize and don't get distracted by outside influences!
