Eastern Fox Squirrel

Maria,the birds peck on the apples too!

Geoffrey , The Park ranger on Mount Diablo told me that.

I have a tree with small apples in my yard and every year the squirrels eat everything that the deer can't get to before they even ripen completely!

Wow, hadn't heard that Emma, the plot thickens for the Western Gray squirrel. Do you remember where you read that? I would be interested in who is doing the research.

Geoffrey,it is out competing too but it is also producing hybrids with the Western Gray Squirrel.

Introduced to California where it is possibly out-competing the native Western Gray Squirrel (Sciurus griseus).

thanks for the Id Geoffrey!

Antonio, I will do some research and let you know .

apple lover,super cut spotting,great timing and the 5 photos show it all.
i have to make a squirrel quest to spott one,i saw some in the biological park,so it's a question of time to spott them :)
