🐿️ Why are the young red squirrels chasing each other in this clip?

If you’ve been lucky enough to spot young red squirrels around Grasmere recently, you may have seen them racing through the trees, chasing each other and generally causing a lot of commotion!

At this time of year, many of the young squirrels are becoming more independent. The chasing, jumping and play-fighting is often part of their development — helping them practise climbing, jumping, balance and all those important squirrel skills.

They’re also learning how to interact with other squirrels and establishing the social boundaries they’ll need as they grow up. What looks like a frantic chase can be a mixture of play, practice and learning.

So next time you see a couple of young reds tearing around the trees, stop and watch for a while. You’re seeing the next generation learning how to be squirrels! ❤️🐿️

We’d love to hear about your sightings — even if you don’t manage to catch them on camera! They’re very quick! 🐿️💨
