Gray Squirrel

On a walk through the filbert orchards at Dorris Ranch, I saw this gray squirel in a tree with a broken top. When it looked at me I tripped the shutter. Around here we usually find the gray squirrels near rivers or else in the hills. The red squirrels seem to found most every place else. The gray squirrels are bigger too.

In Europe, the Grey Squirrels are considered an invading species (even a pest!). Nevertheless, I still love them!
