I can read squirrel thought bubbles. This one is asking the universe for warm and sunny weather. Y'all have a good Good Friday, yeah? I will catch up with you later this rainy day. #photography #squirrel #squirrels #blacksquirrels

#Blacksquirrels are relatively #uncommon in the United States, making up an estimated 1 in 10,000 of all squirrels. They are a color variation of the gray squirrel, and the black coat is due to a condition called melanism-- skin or fur has increased development of the dark-colored pigment melanin.

I mean, how do I find out? Is there such a thing as squirrel bluesky? #squirrels #greysquirrels #blacksquirrels

Nice pose, you nutty little punk rock lookin' thang... you know, black squirrels are not a worldwide population. Ontario has the largest number, followed by Ohio. I often saw tourists in Toronto freaking out at the sight of them. #photography #blacksquirrels #squirrels #squirrelphotos #cute
