That’s pretty much all we have in Detroit city. Go 10 miles north and they are rare. It’s like they also moved to the city in large numbers some years ago. 😅

In Exeter Ontario, there are white squirrels and they are leucistic and not albino.
If you want it out your property show it a job application

I saw these squirrels in Maryland. I remember a sailor saying “Even the squirrels are black” Am I racist for laughing?

We have several black squirrels who live on our property. We’ve been seeing them every spring for about five years but I’ve confirmed via ocular assessment that it’s multiple, not just one.
The rest, and there are many, are tan or red. (Texas)
Couldn’t find a good Mac ocular assessment gif so this one will do

I remember being surprised at the existence of black squirrels in mid-Wisconsin circa 1970.
