Once a bird lover ... always a bird lover
Hi there

I found this while investigating some of the websites. New road signs for Red Squirrels - to protect them as a species. It looks although some Red Squirrels have been in heavy competition with local cars in the area.... the cars won.

Been to Arran for a week to cut down Rhoddie bushes many years ago, and I still remember my visits especially to Brodrck Castle - must dig out those old photo's to scan in.

Anyway the full story is as the link shows:

Thanks for the links Kathy: it's good to know we are beginning to look after our 'own' in a big way. May their plans work.
