Sciurus niger
This poor squirrel had ice on his back because there was an ice storm the day I took the picture and it must have been very cold and he did not look his best. Considered a rodent. Has reddish to reddish-gray fur on top and cream underside with a creamy eye ring. His tail was all icy and kind of limp looking.
This squirrel was spotted at Frenchman's Wilderness Campground in Butte La Rose, Louisiana. There were two or three of these squirrels in the area.
