Heather from Kankakee happened upon this interesting squirrel (a melanistic gray) while birdwatching. As she says, "It looks as if some one dipped it in the ink well."

Doing a double-take? This squirrel's black body and red tail show the rare mixing that can happen in the body and tail colors of gray squirrels. Melanistic grays tend to have black bodies and tails, but can cometimes have gray, orange, or even white tails.
Thanks to Bob for sharing this image! |
