21st January 2007: Red Squirrels

Unfortunately, the seals at Donna Nook had left, so instead 10 of us headed off to mid-Wales to see Red Squirrels.

It was a cold January day, but the group got an excellent close up sighting of a squirrel building its drey.

14th January 2007: Harvest Mice Survey

A couple of us braved the January weather and undertook a survey at Whitfield Local Nature reserve, the only one in Stoke-on-Trent.

Harvest mice nests were found in two separate areas. Other evidence was found for mole, fox, badger, rabbit, field vole.
