I was sitting down with a brew on the edge of a new wood I was exploring & saw this white animal come climbing down a tree about 30 yards away. I caught a glimpse of this out of the corner of my eye & then it went away for a bit. Some time later it appeared between 2 trees a bit closer, where I could see it was definatly a squirrel with a lovely white coat & tail. It was white all over with not a mark on him. At first i thought it could be a ferret, maybe a mink or something but when it was close it was definatly a squirell. It was great to watch him for a bit before he climbed back up his tree. I have heard of black ones or some which are greay with a bit of red in them but have never seen a brilliant wite one like this before. It was great to watch and made my day. I tried to get a snap with my camera phone but the photos were rubbish. It's typical that the one day I leave my proper digital camera at home, due to the heavy rain in the morning, that I get to see a great animal like this. Thought I would share the sighting. Has anyone else seen such an animal before?
