Here's what the dog thinks about waiting around for red squirrels:
It was great to see them moving around, high in the canopy. But the first sighting was after sitting quietly on the soft mossy ground by the trees. The dog was the first to react, but after waiting for a little longer, I turned to see one pausing on the ground behind me, before heading off :)
~ the next time we waited around, the dog started growling, hearing something moving around. When we began to walk back, there was one starting to climb up a tree. It was quite curious, looking down at us. I didn't hang around for long, just in case it wanted to come straight back down.
