We don't have many fox squirrels around here. Almost excluselvly red and greys. Does this look more like a gray of fox squirrel?

That's a gray. We have a neat color variation on grays around here, they have white on the backs of their ears, almost every one.
I just recently started seeing black squirrels in my neck of the woods. Up until three years ago I never saw a single one. I still only see them in one particular swamp.
Yesterday I saw a gray with four white feet.
Eh...wot?

Gray. Gray squirrels can range in color from white to black I've shot grays with all black bellies, all red bellies, and all white bellies, and all of those mixed together all and all weird configurations.As far as fox squirrels. I have never found very much color change or variation on their bellies. But remember I live in pa, so that might make a difference as well. Cool squirrel

In the Mo Ozarks, it's quite common to see Grey's with a lot of Orange patches

It's a grey fox squirrel
Could be hybrid. Shot one a few years ago that looked like a giant wholly bear. Think I posted it on here
Every day is a gift from GOD, don't waste it!!
If they have plenty of food, give them something interesting to smell

Looks like a Grey. We have tons of color variations in our greys.The reddish like that is not uncommon here. Black with a blonde tail was one of the odder ones I've seen. We have some with white ears too, like Lugnut mentioned. Each variation tends to have its little pocket, being common there but not seen again for miles.
Foxes have very little color variation that I've seen. But they are much less common in my areas, so I can't say that holds true everywhere.
