Hello Mr. Squirrel

Today's post is about the lovely Gray Squirrel. The gray squirrel is the most common squirrel found in the Eastern United States.


Here are some really cool squirrel facts!

1. Squirrels are blind at birth but develop perfect vision as adults

2.  Squirrels have been around for over 35 million years

3. We mostly see gray squirrels in the United States, however there are also black squirrels as well as white ones (which are super rare!)

4. A squirrel can fall 100 feet and live to tell the tale!

5. Squirrels mate in the winter. You'll often see two squirrels chasing each other in the trees or in the snow. They are doing more than just playing....
