Blacky and other Black Squirrels

These 2 pictures were taken by me down at fairlands, this black squirrel is called blacky, the Black squirrel is hyperactive and runs faster than a normal one. Fairlands is located in Stevenage Hertfordshire, Black Squirrels are rare but not in Fairlands, you might
see him or them chasing after
ordinary Grey Squirrels which happens all the time.

!!!Look at this!!!

Blacky!

The best part of the picture is that my timing, the light on the body was shining in the right parts.

I really think that the timing couldn't of been better for me.

This squirrel at Fairlands almost got ran over by my dad when he was on his bike. He didn't mean to do it.


Once the BBC or some other company came up to catch them on tape for a documentary or just showing what it's is like with this/these squirrels. I thought that dad was telling me a lie until some kids I saw found him, he was like hiding behind I think was a oak tree. he is shy and quite a lovely squirrel to take pictures of. People have been saying about an Albino Squirrel in Fairlands, we found out it wasn't true. But someone also said about an Albino Blackbird. It is funny that it is white and it's called a Blackbird. You can get all sorts of albino things, animals, birds, fish, and plants such as bluebells.

Like these pictures below:

This is a Mallard duck, there are a few of these Mallards down at Fairlands Lakes that appear to have a problem with their genes. It's nothing bad, it's just that their plumage or feathers have a different colour to others of its type. There are more that have different coloured animals down at Fairlands.

This picture is a picture that I took down at Fairlands lakes of a Young mute swan reminds me that this juveniles plumage will soon be white. All animals have different colour at different times of their life or year.
