I've seen many incredible images of red squirrels on here and I know this is only fit for the waste bin in comparison however.............it's my first ever red squirrel sighting. At Loch of the Lowes near Dunkeld on our way up to Wester Ross (where there are no squirrels of any colour). Taken with the Sigma 150-600 at 600mm in poor evening light in trees, handheld at 1/250 sec, iso 6400 (my camera really isn't comfortable at high iso hence the noise) - I was surprised I captured it at all but I did. There were two of them dancing through the trees and what absolutely delightful little creatures they are. Later that same evening I read in a magazine there's a plan to try to reintroduce them in Cornwall. Oh yes, yes, yes......!
