Thank you Daniele! I've already spent way too much time on here:). I'll do my best to add scientific names. It saves a lot of time to put that down in the beginning than to edit my spotting information later.

Hi AdamBrown, and welcome to Project Noah! If you know the exact species in your spotting it's easy to find out its scientific name and a reference using Google. Project Noah used scientific name to index all spottings. This little guy might be Sciurus aberti of the subspecies ferreus, which is found around Denver. Enjoy your time on Project Noah!
