Tuesday 8th December - 'Red Squirrels' with Northumberland Wildlife Trust
We were fortunate to see red squirrels on our recent visit to Hulne Park, Alnwick. With the exception of Cumbria, Northumberland is now the only remaining area of mainland England which boasts a large population of red squirrels.  Even here, reds are declining and greys are invading from both the North and South.  Through its Save Our Squirrel project, NWT is working to protect this charismatic mammal which faces an uncertain future.
