Rock Squirrel

Today the rock squirrels started demanding their own time at the feeder.

[Milanie]

I wasn't familiar with rock squirrels - they're sure a different color. Nice shot.

[Richard]

I had never heard of a Rock squirrel before. Nice capture!

[Joanna kate]

Hadn't seen this colour before, nice shot

[Kate Goring]

I know these guys cause a lot of havoc but I love to watch them. Great shot.

[Jenfurj]

Lovely dark colours of the coat. He looks quite at home there.

Wonderful shot, can't say I have heard of rock squirrels before.

Great capture, I love his tail :)

Lovely capture

Never seen one that colour. In the UK we have imported drab grey ones and threatened beautiful red ones...
Nicely cptured though.

He's a beauty - I love how dark his fur is.

[Faye Turner]

Cute capture!

[Helen Jane]

It's a real danger when the squirrels take over! Still, you have a great picture here. So many rich greys.

He certainly appears to be chowing down with enthusiasm! I didn't know about rock squirrels, thanks for introducing me to them.

Oh, what a lovely dark face he has. SO cute.

@tristansmum Thanks for your comment, Stephanie! When I first started this project last November you introduced me to the green lynx spider so I am very happy that I could return the favor and introduce you to this cute, but always hungry, rock squirrel. :-)
