EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historical presence of the Bewick / Grey Squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis), a common yet notorious creature that originated from America and made its way to Europe in 1790. Known for being a menace to farmers, these squirrels quickly became familiar sights in their new habitats.
The image showcases the intricate details of this grey squirrel, beautifully captured by Mary Evans Picture Library. The sharp contrast between its fluffy fur and bushy tail against a natural backdrop truly brings out the essence of this iconic species.
With roots tracing back to early European history, these squirrels have left a lasting impact on both ecosystems and human livelihoods. Despite their cute appearance, they were often seen as pests due to their destructive behavior towards crops and gardens.
As we admire this stunning photograph, we are reminded of the complex relationship between humans and wildlife throughout time. The Bewick / Grey Squirrel serves as a reminder of our ever-evolving coexistence with nature, showcasing both the beauty and challenges that come with sharing our world with such remarkable creatures.
