It is funny because we have the reverse here. The red squirrels although much smaller, are far more aggressive and are very quickly pushing the greys out. We never had any reds by the cottage until about 5 years ago and now they have moved in and they are bloody well everywhere. Just last Sunday I watched 3 of them kick the crap out of a grey.

We supposedly have an "enclave" (sounds ominous) of white squirrels about 1/2 an hour from home. I have been there many, many times and have yet to see a single one.

We've had piebald squirrels where they have patches or complete areas that are pure white. In most of Ontario there are two prominent colours, the grey and the black. But on my road we have blonde squirrels. No idea why but somewhere in the local gene pool there is a recessive that overrides the dominant. This little fellow was a bright gold colour when he was young. His body molted and became this dark version but he kept his bright tail.

That color would act like a beacon to the Falcons, Hawks and Owls around my home I suspect.
