Hey, @bayucca: the ears are super small. @PatriciaPi Thanks for the ID
bayucca
Interesting spotting and ID. I am confused about the ears: Are they small or large, compared with the Variegated Squirrel? From the location it "must" be the Poas Squirrel, although there are also the other ones. If the ears are small than it is also Poas. The colors are tricky for me, I can't separate them just from the colors.
