It’s not just the birds that are consuming winter berries at the moment.
When I’m out walking, I often hear scurrying noises in the tree branches above my head and look up to see Grey squirrels, their cheeks stuffed with berries, their paws reaching out for the next delicious morsels.
And it’s not just a berry dessert they crave, of course, as they’re also well known for their liking for nuts. In the photo, right, the squirrel is holding Alder cones, which it has just been munching on.
Beautiful captures, Sconzani!!

Are there any Reds left where you are or are they all the American immigrants?

No local reds, sadly. I have only seen them once, in the National Trust woodlands at Formby – gorgeous little creatures.

If you go to the Argyll coast you would probably see them and many other delightful creatures.
