A rare white squirrel has been photographed in the gardens of a Tooting estate.
Tony Skinner, editor-in-chief of Shephard Media, spotted the squirrel in Tooting Bec Road on Wednesday morning.
White, or albino squirrels, are incredibly rare in Britain, with just a one in 100,000 squirrels born without an colour pigments. They are usually spotted in parts of Surrey and Hampshire, but this critter may be a fan of inner city living.
