Many of us (me included) have never been lucky enough to see a Red Squirrel in the wild.
Many blame the domination of the grey squirrel for their decline.
However to give their grey cousins a bit of a break deforestation, viruses, building by man and predators are amongst just a few of the other possible contributing causes.
Whatever the reason for the change in population there is no doubt that The Red Squirrel is a pleasure to look at and I thank every single Flickr contributor for making this such an excellent slideshow.
