thankyou Beverly. Have never seen a white squirrel, but would like to. We should trade some white ones for black ones : ) Maybe they'd come out like the stripes on zebras : )

Nice capture of the black squirrel - we don't have any here in WNC but nearby they have white ones.

Hi Gary, many thanks, am happy you like the black squirrel pic. That's amazing that you've lived in 21 states!

A beautiful shot! We don't have black squirrels here. I can remember seeing them somewhere I used to live. I just can't remember where. I've lived in 21 states, so hard to remember those details.

thankyou Alex, the squirrels are really acting up lately, chasing each other clear across the driveway : )

Hi Ev, thanks for the nice comment. I like the black squirrels too, but they are all entertaining with their funny antics. These black ones chase the others off the patio quite often : )

many thanks everyone, Carol, Alan, Jas and Chriss. They are quite the photogenic little critters : )

That's the first time we'd seen one atop that water bubble.

Chriss, no we also have the greyish squirrels that have a touch of "red" on them also. But the black ones are quite shiny.
