A rare day of forecasted, all day sunshine, so I went out to try and make the most of it. Whenever I see Grey Squirrels I can’t help but compare them with Reds, the original inhabitants of the woods here. Unfortunately its been years since I’ve seen one locally and they’re not likely to make a comeback as the Greys takeover. However, with a low morning sunlight and the right posing, even a Grey Squirrel can be photogenic – along with the odd Pheasant making impromptu appearance. Still, I can’t help but think how much nicer these images would have been if it could have been the more attractive, charismatic Red Squirrel. I wonder if I’ll ever see one again never mind photograph one.
