Whiteadder?

It was a bank holiday here on Monday so we went for a trip to the local resovoir Whiteadder to muck around in the burn with the kids. Whilst there I actually found an adder, but it wasn't white...more a brown colour. It didn't like hanging around and hissed off in to the bracken before I could get my camera out. The day before I had been out for a run and saw this white thing in the woods. On closer inspection it was an albino squirrel. I've never seen one before and wondered if other people have too. Anyway both were a reminder of how fortunate I am to be living in a place where wildlife is on your doorstep in abundance.
