Battle lines have been drawn over fresh signs of the advance of grey squirrels from north Angus into the Aberdeenshire stronghold of their native red cousins.
Non-native greys pose a deadly threat to the protected reds through the squirrelpox virus.
A number of grey squirrels have recently been found north of the River North Esk in areas including Marykirk, St Cyrus and Benholm.
