Great photo Dave, but I am no fan of the Greys I'm afraid, you would still have the Reds nearer to you if it hadn't been for these guys.

Nice picture, I've never seen a red in the wild which I think is a great shame, really don't like the grey squirrel

Get yourself round grizedale forest, it's run by forestry commission, they do a lot to encourage the reds, as good a place as any to spot one I'd say.

Only seen one in the wild in the uk and that was in Scotland. But when i was based in Germany looking out of my window you'd see them most of the time.
