I know with the melanistic ones, 1 in 4 of the litter will be black or brown. Sounds like you have a small colony growing there.

In Canada- they have mostly the melanistic - so it’s a big deal to see the actual grey version- just like a big deal here seeing the melanistic ones.

jajaja that makes sense! 😹

Western grey squirrels (or more commonly, eastern grey squirrels with color variations) sometimes exhibit an orange or reddish "cinnamon" mutation. This rare, often localized, genetic variation presents as a ginger head, orange shoulders, and orange-tinted back or tail. These individuals are distinct from the entirely orange-yellow fox squirrel. Key facts about orange-colored grey squirrels: • Genetic Basis: The orange color is often caused by a genetic mutation (likely affecting the MC1R gene) that produces phaeomelanin (red/orange pigment) instead of the usual eumelanin (black/brown pigment). • "Cinnamon" Morph: A specific cinnamon-colored variant has become increasingly reported in urban areas like New York, where they feature ginger heads and orange, striped backs. • Localized Variations: These color variations, including golden or blonde tails, can appear in specific, isolated populations. • Distinction from Fox Squirrels: While grey squirrels can have orange, they are different species from the larger, naturally orange- hued Fox Squirrel (Sciurus niger). • Melanistic Link: Some studies suggest that unusual colorations in gray squirrels, including orange, can be linked to interbreeding with other species or genetic mutations, such as those that cause melanism.

This could explain it. And who knew that they’re really eastern greys?

It’s probably plush.

Western grey? Interesting! May be a mutation.

Here there are eastern greys - and for 3 years on and off I see a brown one. He’s melanistic. I’ve seen the black melanistic ones but never brown.

Is this a fox squirrel? Very cool looking.

They look so good.
*Nice disclaimer.

Well your love should be their best present but catnip with it is an epic combination 😻😻

NICE. What did the kitties get?

Gracias !
HEART SHAPED? I‘m impressed.

Happy VD to you, mom, Nelson, Priscilla, Zeke, Orville and Wilbur 😻

Two cats are sitting in a living room. One is holding a pink piece of paper with a heart on it. He's saying, "I wrote this poem for the human: 'This Valentine's Day, I want you to smile. If I have to throw up, I'll do it on tile.'" The other cat says, "It really tugs at the heartstrings."

Happy Valentine's Day ❤️

Here’s the difference between MAGA fucks and normal people. MAGA will protect or deny any Trump involvement with Epstein girls no matter what.

NORMAL people will say investigate and prosecute ANYONE involved. I don’t give a fuck what political party they’re in. Fuck ‘em all

What side are you on?

This reminds me of a standup (I think it was Paul Rodriguez), who was telling a joke in Spanish and stopped then said something like oh if you don’t understand Spanish….LEARN! 😄😄😄
