This looks like it might be a variegated squirrel. I saw one in Costa Rica this past summer. Take a look here to compare: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/8818135 Welcome Jonathan!

Hello Jonathan! Sciurus vulgaris is a Eurasian squirrel species. I hope someone can help you identify this cute guy!
