In the 1970s and 80s I lived near Capital Beach Lake in NE Lincoln and there were never black squirrels there. At that time a friend lived near Southeast High and we observed the black squirrels were most popular in the Country Club area around 27 St & Van Dorn St. Now I live near 27 & Hwy 2 and see black squirrels a few times each year.
