That is interesting realspeed, I have never seen a red squirrel. I would love to see one. that one in your picture looks gray....

I saw one once that was gray and I thought it looked like it had a brown tail. So cute.

Re: squirrel on log

Unfortunately I don't get squirrels in my garden, the only things that feed from the bird feeder are 2 mahoosive fat pigeons and a family of starlings that are nesting in the guttering.

Lots of them over the road in the nature reserve though, but only greys, no reds or blacks.
