Ever see a grey squirrel with blonde ears? I've been trying to get a picture but he has been to quick or I have been to slow. I've never seen it before.

black squirrels are not a separate species.

Most of the squirrels in my area have white patches on the backs of their ears.

Last spring turkey hunting, I saw my first ever all blonde squirrel. Looked like some bleached out a grey squirrel.

It really stuck out against the green grass.

Where I squirrel hunted as a kid, there were more blacks than greys.

Yes. I've got a couple in my yard. Even had a couple black squirrels. Used to have a lot of squirrels until a fisher moved in and pretty much cleaned most of them out. I thought about trapping the fisher, but thought the better of it since I enjoyed seeing it from time to time. But, once he reduced the squirrel population in my woods, it moved on. Definitely an example of conservation in motion being so important. The squirrels were so many they had become a nuisance.


I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

Pretty common here for them to have white tufts of hair on the back of their ears.

Grey squirrel with white behind its ears is an older squirrel. Young ones don't have it.
