There are many nuts that look the same but this one is mine....

The last image the squirrel came and took the nut from my fingers, I've never had that happen with grey or red.... The Reds are extra cute....
I made a special trip to Formby point to photograph the red squirrels and I’d no sooner got set up when 6 large coaches turned up.
Each coach discharged at least 50 screaming children, probably 8 and 9 years old, all wearing high vis vests and screaming and running around so that was the end of my photographic session.
Anyway I went the short trip to Crosby beach to see Antony Gormleys statues in the sea and got some great shots of them with the tide lapping around their legs.
