Sorry about the poor picture quiality, but this was well past a reasonable zoom level for my phone.

Apparently, bout 1 in 100k squirrels are born with albinism, which given there are millions of squirrels in the UK alone means there are likely tens of them in the country at any one time. Saw this one in the same park a few times a few years back.

          Oh, it looks like it is either digging up its secret stash or burying it where no one can see!

          Thank you for linking, fun to see them in motion always!
