David Penty British Library Grey Squirrel An example of the call of the grey squirrel recorded in woodland at Pinbury Park, Gloucestershire. These persistent and highly intelligent mammals have become public enemy number one in the eyes of many garden bird lovers, destroying feeders across Britain in an attempt to reach the peanuts inside.  A now common sight in parks and gardens, grey squirrels prefer mixed or deciduous woodland with a ready supply of acorns, nuts, fruit, roots and succulent tree shoots. Chattering, rasping and barking are all examples from the grey squirrel’s vocabulary who become particularly noisy when alarmed or angry. An introduced species from the US, they are responsible for the decline of our own native red squirrels. sounds.bl.uk/022M-W1CDR0001537-0400V0 W1CDR0001537 BD4 1977/01/23 http://sounds.bl.uk/JISC ASR IPR STATUS LIST.xls Williams, Aubrey John Pinbury Park, Gloucestershire: OS Grid Reference(395500,204500) Mammals sound 1 1 1 1 1 0 Grey Squirrel British Wildlife Recordings 1977 BL Product Identifier :W1CDR0001537 BD4 022 British Wildlife Recordings, Wildlife W1CDR0001537 AB 022M-W1CDR0001537-0400V0 00:03:53 00:03:53
