Grey Squirrel

Nice catch, Keith!

Gourmand pris en flagrant délit*****

So cute !!!

sind das nicht die Invasiven Keith, die die europäische Art verdrängt?

They are Wilfried...............but it's not their fault :-))

ich weis Keith, immer wenn der Mensch in die Natur eingreift macht er es meistens falsch

Can't argue with that!

Excellent capture of this attractive grey squirrel Keith, I like the nice autumn colours.
Have a good Sunday.

A nice encounter, Keith ! So cute !

Very busy!

Cheeky chap but busy collecting Christmas Dinner

It was burying stuff all over the place................it will have forgotten where by now..!!

Nutkin!! You've done him proud Keith!

This one looks well fed Keith. I know they are considered a nuisance, but I can't help liking them and I also like your picture!

Have a great new week.

I like them too.........it's not their fault they're an invasive species. Glad you like the shot Rosa.

These are just so cute -even though the little blighters rip up our garden and bulbs and steal the bird food but I would not like to see them disappear. Great catch here. Eileen has given our visitors names as they have their own distinctive looks and habits. ie 'Finder' and 'Hide' :)

Cheers. Herb

I agree Herb............they're already digging holes in my lawn and burying food they've stolen from the bird feeders! Gotta love 'em though.

Superbe je n'en ai jamais vu chez mois des gris

Thank you...........besides seeing them in this park, I also have lots of them that visit my garden!

What a gorgeous little muncher! Neat colors on this cutie too. Love the crisp details, I'm glad it was holding still so we get to see too! :)

Such kind and generous comments...............thank you all so much!

Belle prise de vue bonne journée

Thank you Patrick :-)

ach wie süß, ein graues Eichhörnchen habe ich noch nie gesehen, ab und an sieht man hier schwarze

Thank you. They were introduced here from America I believe and are considered an invasive species. They carry a disease known as squirrel pox and also compete for food with our native (and smaller) Red Squirrels and as a result the vast majority of the Reds have been wiped out and exist only in a few small pockets in the UK. Of course, it's not their fault - they didn't ask to be introduced and are just doing what comes naturally.

rachtig Keith hij valt bijna niet op

Yes, they're well camouflaged amidst the leaves. It's easy to miss them until they move!

Celui là a encore quelques traces de coloration d'écureuil Europeen

It does look like that doesn't it? It depends on which way the light catches them as well.

Ein guter Schuss, Keith!
