Early this morning a red squirrel was seen opposite St Mary’s Church in Windermere – it was running about in the road and was nearly run over. This is the fourth red squirrel seen in Windermere over the last couple of months, plus someone glimpsed one at Spooner Vale, but couldn’t be 100% sure it was a red squirrel – it’s now looking most likely that it was. Please let us have the details if you see a red in Windermere or anywhere else.
