Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted May 7, 2020 Posted May 7, 2020 Ah, but is it a white red squirrel, or a white grey squirrel? Quote
Kingster Posted May 7, 2020 Posted May 7, 2020 It’s a cute white squirrel according to my wife 😁 Quote

GaryH Posted May 7, 2020 Posted May 7, 2020 Anyone remember Tufty the squirrel as a road crossing example? Is it just me, or does anyone else think it odd that an often "road killed" animal was used to teach kids to cross the road... Gary 2 Quote
stephenh Posted May 7, 2020 Posted May 7, 2020 Ah, but the road kill squirrels are the non-native grey squirrels, otherwise known as tree rats. Quote
DonPeffers Posted May 8, 2020 Author Posted May 8, 2020 It's a native red squirrel thought to have a genetic condition called Leucism. Quote
pistonbroke Posted May 11, 2020 Posted May 11, 2020 Agggh ! Not good , especially as it looks to be at least 3ft tall Quote
