Enjoying fruits of the forest

Red squirrels have had a tough time of it over the past hundred years or so, largely due to pressure from the bigger, non-native greys, which carry a disease which is fatal to reds. But here in the Cairngorms National Park, the red squirrel population is growing. Efforts are made to keep grey squirrels out and the park’s ancient Caledonian Pine Forests provide reds with the perfect habitat.
