The AO - in all it's majestic wisdom - describes this as a Red Squirrel.

Even someone with the brain of a dead ant would know that a) there ain't no red squirrels within 35 miles of Accy and b) the picture is of course, of a Grey Squirrel.

Just how much worse is this newspaper going to get?
Obviously i know very little about the breeding habbits of british ants, have openly admitted that by asking for advice / explanation on a public forum. Its not something that was part of the national curriculum when I was at school and cant say its something that I have studied since. If you dont ask you never know, right??????
