On 16th November, 2023, Max Blake gave an excellent a talk to Langholm Rotary Club on Red Squirrels in the UK and their battle for survical against the grey squirrel.  Max showed the change in Red/Grey population from 1945 until current day.

Max's talk was thouroughly enjoyed by everyone and provoked many questions - always a good sign of a great talk!
