It really is a red squirrel not a dragon.

I’m about as Welsh as they come. I have NO blood relatives with anything but O positive blood type, 3 out of 4 grandparents had Welsh surnames, one of them Powys (Powers). I had my DNA analyzed on one of those genetic heritage sites and both sides are loaded with markers that are common in Wales.

O positive is a Welsh marker ?

AB negative here. But only half of my family is Welsh.

Does 0-neg count for anything? My dad’s grandparents came from the Rhondda valley in 1890 or so. But since the men were miners they could have moved there from anywhere to find work.

Where I grew up in central Indiana, red squirrels are called “boomers” and are pretty common. Next most common seems to be fox squirrels.

Now I live in northern Indiana and there are black squirrels and gray squirrels around here
