Red Squirrels - Time to Blog Again

I don't seem to have had much time recently to blog, post images to Flickr, or do much other than try to make images. The blogs that have appeared recently have been lifted from our website, which we have now closed down. The problem lies in the fact that I have 5700 images to go through and little time to do it.

I suppose the answer is to put the camera down and not pick it up until I have either cleared the backlog, or at least made a major dent in the total number. But the time of year is against that; the Red Squirrels are busy, the Red Deer rut is underway and we also have a date booked with Red Kites. It looks like there is a recurring red theme there, but that's just the way it is.

So I'm going to try my best to get something out there on a weekly basis from now on, starting with this Red Squirrel captured on our trip to Brownsea Island over the weekend. We had a memorable day and over three hours with a small number of these beauties entertaining us. This was probably at least our fourth attempt to get some decent 'Red' images and there's still a trip to the Isle of Wight booked for next year to get them. Maybe after the Brownsea success, we should cancel that trip so that I can spend more time clearing my backlog.
