Thanks Chuck,
I had the feeling that it was too small to be a squirrel but had nothing to
compare with; and where I live there are neither squirrels nor chipmunks.
And, having lived in the UK for 2 years, once upon a time, knew that 'normal'
North Am squirrels are grey and UK squirrels are red with a BIG bushy tail.
