About Red Squirrels:

Squirrels live high in trees in a nest made from twigs, leaves, and moss called a drey. They store nuts in the ground in the autumn, burying them to retrieve during winter months—though they often forget where some are buried, helping to plant new trees! Red squirrels are smaller than gray squirrels and are known for their reddish-brown fur and distinctive ear tufts (especially prominent in winter). They're agile climbers with sharp claws and can leap up to 20 feet between trees. Red squirrels are territorial and will defend their food caches aggressively. They eat nuts, seeds, pine cones, fungi, and occasionally bird eggs. Red squirrels are excellent for educational purposes, raising awareness about endangered species and environmental consciousness—they're threatened in many areas by habitat loss and competition from gray squirrels. In the UK, red squirrels are a conservation priority. These charming creatures are symbols of woodland health and biodiversity!
