What a beauty he is Paul, sadly we don't get any red squirrels around here any more, the greys have taken over. We often visit the Bournemouth winter gardens all through the year, its squirrel city down there, great fun to watch them chase off the pigeons.

I love hearing the noise they make, I cant make my mind up whether its a squawk like sound, or an extended bark/chirp like sound. Its great to hear them on a summer morning barking up in the tree's, then we hear a russell of the branches and out they come shooting across the lawn like a bolt of lightening, fast little things.
