Field Notes

Description:

Common grey/brown rodent. Has a white underside and bushy tail.

Habitat:

Backyards everywhere. This tree squirrel is prolific and adaptable.

Notes:

I saw this little guy hopping across my backyard today, but he wasn't using one of his hind legs. His fur looks like he might have been attacked by a cat, raptor, or fox.
