While we were up at Aspenwood Cottage on Saturday morning we spotted this red squirrel emerging from Farigaig Forest, run along the platform fence and enjoy a good feed of the peanuts. Although we have seen them dash across the roads lately they have not made much of an appearance at the cottage feeders so it really cheered us up to see them back. They do not hibernate in the cold weather but they do store food in the ground for a cold day. Glad to see they have made it through the winter and we shall be looking out for more.
