As its name suggests, this squirrel typically has a grey coat with white undersides, though the coat colour can also be quite brown at times. Grey squirrels are mainly herbivorous, eating acorns, hazel nuts, berries, fungi, buds and shoots, and even bark. The grey squirrel was introduced to Great Britain in the middle of the 19th century. There is now an estimated population of 2 million making them much more common than the native red squirrel. They arrived in England from North America and are now one of Britain's most well known and frequently seen mammals, with an estimated population of 2 million.

Dreich Autumn Road Trip Drive With Music On History Visit To Rural Fife Scotland

Tour Scotland 4K Autumn travel video, with Scottish bagpipes music, of a dreich afternoon road trip drive on a narrow route on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to the Hills in Rural Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. Dreich is a Scots word for dull and cloudy and rainy weather. Fife is a large peninsula of lowlands and hills located on Scotland’s east coast. It is located within the Midland Valley of Scotland, a relatively low lying part of the country, between the Grampian Highlands to the North and the Southern Uplands to the South. The county is well known for its scenic landscapes. The area is quite diverse in character ranging from low lying arable farmland to large areas of upland pasture. The lower lying, flatter landscapes have fertile soils where agriculture dominates, supporting a broad range of crops, including cereals, fruit and vegetables. Cattle grazing is also common on less fertile areas, with a small amount of sheep grazing. Also 17% of Scotland’s total poultry production occurs in Fife. The Mesolithic is the period between the end of the last Ice Age and the introduction of farming in Fife. They would have had a deep knowledge and understanding of the landscape as they moved on a seasonal basis to exploit the changing resources within their territories. The Neolithic, New Stone Age, marks the introduction of farming around 6000 to 5,500 years ago. The origins and spread of Scotland’s first farmers in Fife are disputed, but farming appears to have arrived with domesticated animals and plants. There have been changes to the rural farmland over the years, the most obvious being the increase in arable cultivation, the removal of field boundaries and the consequential enlarging of arable fields. Roads are important elements in the landscape of Fife. For most of the area they form a network of small scale rural roads that relate to the topography and drainage patterns and generally blend well with the landscape. Their roadside stone dykes and hedges are important linear features where they remain intact. Autumn leaf color or colour is a phenomenon that affects the normally green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the Autumn season, various shades of red, yellow, purple, black, orange, pink, magenta, blue and brown. The phenomenon is commonly called autumn colours or autumn foliage in British English and fall colors, fall foliage or simply foliage in American.
