Unfortunately it looks like the American Gray... Not because the original Eurasians are less playful...Fierce creature that one - our Eurasian red squirrels appear to be playful rather than aggressive(as @bhf3737 shows

Who doesn’t love cute squirrel pictures?
Cheers, Graham.
I have to do my check - it was long time ago when I was familiar with this group. Actually as a college students with my room mate we had one (not the same species!) captured from the wild... until our landlord found it (you don't need to know the rest of the story
)!I was expecting forgotten dormouse - because of the structure of the body... I have to refresh my knowledge (or not? - we have nothing like these on the islands )!
Not, it wasn't that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siberian_chipmunk! I have not seen this in real.

Thanks, Click.
When I saw it in the tree I thought: "That red and the green moss on that old oak together... please stay...don't move... FREEEZE!"
And yes, it was really nice. And when it heard my DSLR rattle it looked at me like: "Dude? Got your keeper? Okaaaay! I'll move on now." (That was this shot)
And slowly disappeared... I've never seen such a cool
squirrel before Very nice brown-tailed cats !The red squirrels look a bit different on this side of the Atlantic
Ever seen a squirrel taking a nap? On a snag?
Neither did I. Until yesterday.
I woke this one up with the sound of my DSLR.
And then two others expelled it while they were chasing up and down that oak.
Those two were so fast that I could get only that one good shot.

Just the very next day I saw another (the same?) squirrel taking a nap.
And again I woke that one up with the sound of my DSLR.
