Have you ever seen a red squirrel?

[Curlewwoohoo]

Please tell me where! I've been to the Isle of Wight and looked in all the places I was told about, no luck. Same to a place in Scotland they apparently live in the garden, nowt. Please help me see one!

Lol no, and I am usually a bit of a curse when it comes to wildlife sightings!!! Reckon I've got 20yrs good years left in me to find one ha ha...

I’ve never seen a red squirrel and I spent my childhood on the Isle of Wight . I saw my first black squirrel at 50 !

In my back garden. West of Ireland. They collect the hazel nuts every year so see them on autumn and spring. It's all red squirrels west of the Shannon.

In the Ardennes in Belgium

Queen Elizabeth park in Trossachs. Also seen albino ones locally,

Yessss was utterly thrilled to see my first few red squirrels ever in the Netherlands last week 😍😍😍

The Lake District.

Anglesey, specifically Plas Newydd (National Trust place). They have a woodland walk where we usually spot a few.

Lots in Formby! Lovely place.

In Denmark.

(Also in a small zoo called Wildwood, in Kent, which has only native European species - including UK species.)

Formby, between Crosby and Southport (north of Liverpool) . Really easy to see.
Also in Kielder Forest in Northumberland but not as simple as Formby. A friend there gets them in her garden.

Yes, we have them in our village. We don't see them all that often so I still get excited when I do.

Brownsea island snd lots up north Scotland.

Although the area of Scotland I live in is full of greys.

Centre Parks in the Lakes.

I live on the Isle of Wight
They live in my Dms garden so see them quite often as they know when Ddad fills up the feeder
Alot of the time its just luck

Well my dad saw his first panda at 70 so it’s never too late- hadn’t even seen one in a zoo before

I live in the Scottish Highlands and there are plenty, see at least 1 or 2 every morning on my street walking the dog. We actually have signs up to watch out for them when driving.

I once saw one in Macclesfield.

I think there are a lot more in Scotland than England.

Yes, when we camped there we got a bit blasé about seeing them, there were so many. That said I've never seen one when we've gone for the day.

Yes, in Cumbria. But only seen one of them since we moved here 9 years ago.

Berlin, we had a few in our garden. They used to chase each other through the trees. Never seen one in the UK.

There are loads in the Tresco Abbey Gardens on the Isles of Scilly. I even managed to photograph them!

Yes, see them most dog walks in our wee town, we’re in Aberdeenshire. We also have the signs warning drivers!

Yes, I've seem on the Isle of Arran. Up close and personal! They're absolutely beautiful.

Osborne House (not in the house obvs) and Godshill Model Village on the Isle of Wight, and Brownsea Island.
