Spring or Autumn?

Understandably confused by the weather this squirrel was busy burying food this week, in this case a peanut. It certainly feels more like autumn than spring at the moment.

G is for Grey Squirrel

The North American Grey Squirrel was released into the UK sometime in the 19th century as novelty addition to the fauna by the Victorians. So successfully has this rodent adapted to life in the UK that it has pushed the native Red Squirrel population toward a potentially catastrophic collapse. I can see a Grey Squirrel every day if I wish, I have seen a Red Squirrel just a handful of times. 
However the Grey Squirrels are not to blame and many people enjoy their everyday encounters, this one was happily posing for pictures in the middle of the city.
