Hi, I had the right equipment (NIKON D850 - Nikkor 4/70/200), but the wrong settings. I wanted to take pics of birds in flight in the park and did not expect a squirrel,I mostly use a 35 or 50mm lenses so I haven't got too many successful squirrel pictures.
so I selected a wider focus area field, which made the camera focus on the grass and the tree.
But I was happy to take squirrel pics after quite some time ...

I may have posted this elsewhere already so apologies if you’ve already seen it.
I have a load of squirrel pictures sat untouched on computer that I should get through but this one recently I really liked so processed shortly after.

I don’t know for a fact that they are still present but assuming the following isn’t telling porkies then I’d say yes…
Natural Resources Wales / Newborough National Nature Reserve and Forest, Anglesey
Newborough National Nature Reserve and Forest on Anglesey with its beach and dunes is a popular area for recreation and is home to wildlife, especially red squirrels.
naturalresources.wales
It’s on my list to visit next year. Whether it’s like Formby Beach National Trust woods and they are present but extremely rare to spot (at least for my visits) or not I don’t know yet.

Two gardens over at our back is some woods. It’s what we see from our kitchen window.
All of a sudden I spotted this little critter. It went away for a while then came back.
Online media searches throughout the UK claim that they are very rare, with statements such as 'wildlife experts estimate that there are just 50 in the UK' or 'the odds of seeing an albino squirrel is 1 in 100,000'. So it says HERE
