Red Squirrels Success Story

The Red Squirrel population at Formby was decimated by a Pox virus a few years ago but with careful management the numbers are steadily increasing. The National Trust don't use feeders anymore so that infection can't spread that way. Unfortunately it was a particularly dismal day when we went to visit last week so it had to be F2.8 iso 3200 and whatever shutterspeed (125-500th sec) would give a reasonable exposure.  It is amazing what these modern cameras can come up with under these conditions.
