Eastern Gray Squirrel

Sciurus Carolinensis

Description:

This squirrel was scampering around beneath a Black Walnut tree looking for food.

Habitat:

Central Park.

Notes:

It was interesting to see just how bold the Central Park squirrels were. The squirrels I see in my suburban setting usually bolt when I get close, but these just sat where they were until the distance between us was only a few feet.
