A great way of monitoring for an invasive species, using sticky tape to collect hair samples of squirrels. Like our mink rafts collecting footprints, these low tech monitoring methods are great for using widely, involving volunteers and are good value for money!

Scientists from #QueensUniversityBelfast discovered that, while the #pinemarten preys on both species, the greys are much more vulnerable to attack. :D #redsquirrels #redsrule #redsquirrelsrule #redsquirrelsouthwest #saveoursquirrels #britishredsquirrel bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Please slow down and take care on roads. At this time of year young #animals are exploring their surroundings, searching for food & new territory. They & adult explorers may not be road savvy. Watch out for #redsquirrels on your travels. #RoadSafety #WildlifeWednesday #wildlife

Unfortunately, our forests are not immune to the extreme littering problem across Scotland’s wild places at the moment. That's why we're making a joint plea with other agencies to all visitors to act responsibly and take litter home. #TakeItHome forestryandland.gov.scot/news-releases/…

If you're a farmer/land manager/community group in the #scottishborders why not take a look at our Borders Tree Planting Grant Scheme? It offers up to £1,000 towards the capital costs of landscape tree planting. tweedforum.org/our-work/borde…

2006 turned out to be just a little early to write the red squirrel obituary. Fourteen years later and red squirrel conservation has proved amazingly successful, particularly in Ireland, Wales and the North of England.

P3/4 continued finding out about red squirrels today. They used their information to make drawings and write facts. They learnt lots of new information. Read their facts to see if there's something you didn't know about red squirrels. 🐿️ Saving Scotland's Red Squirrels

P3/4 checked their squirrel feeder boxes today. Most of the food had gone and LOTS of hairs on their sticky pads. They are now looking forward to examining the hairs using a microscope. Remember to visit scottishsquirrels.org if you see squirrels- red or grey Tweeddale Red Squirrel Network

As part of their John Muir Award, P5 enjoyed a visit from the Tweeddale Squirrel Network. They shared information about Red and Grey Squirrels and showed us how to analyse hair samples.🐿

P1 have enjoyed listening to stories about Bristle, Peg, and Ping who are 3 red squirrels. The books were kindly donated by The Tweeddale Red Squirrel Network. P1 learnt lots about red squirrels from listening to the stories and later used their information to make fact sheets🐿️
