Squirrel Cam

At Balmoral we have some very special residents - our red squirrels.

The inquisitive red squirrels are one of Scotland's favourite mammals but it is declining in numbers and is classified as an endangered species. We are lucky to have several scurries of squirrels and you can watch them feeding throughout the year.
