American red squirrel

Description:

Red squirrels can be easily identified from other North American tree squirrels by their smaller size, territorial behavior and reddish fur with a white venter (underbelly). Red squirrels are somewhat larger than chipmunks. The Douglas squirrel is morphologically similar to the American red squirrels, but has a rust-colored venter and is restricted to the southwestern coast of British Columbia and in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. These species' ranges do not overlap. - from Wikipedia

Notes:

This little squirrel named after my friend who requested me to call it, Ellie. Ellie comes around everyday without showing any fear towards me at all. She is indeed very cute.
