Sciurus carolinensis
The eastern gray squirrel's average lifespan is 11-12 months. This individual was spotted eating the seeds from a sweetgum tree.
This individual likely lives in and around the American sweetgum tree (Liquidambar styraciflua). Eastern gray squirrels are abundant in Eastern North America.
It appears that this squirrel had no valentine. I spotted it on Valentine's Day.
