The scope of work for wind farm proposals in Scotland often includes surveys for range-restricted mammals including Scottish wild cat, red squirrel and pine marten. Assessment of habitat quality, searches for field signs and camera trapping are all routinely undertaken to inform presence/absence.
We have recently recorded this footage of both red squirrel and pine marten from one of the sites we have been surveying in North-East Scotland.
