N2 - This paper reports an interesting and localized example of damage in deciduous trees on Anglesey, an island from which grey squirrels were eradicated in 2013, and which today holds the largest red squirrel population in Wales ∼800 animals. In 2017, a local landowner reported damage in a small area of ∼10-15 year old trees growing within a wider mature amenity woodland. A total of 87 trees were present in a mixed planting within an approximate 50×50m former paddock area surrounded by mature hedgerows including mature ash and sycamore standards
