Eastern Gray Squirrel's day at the park

Sciurus carolinensis

I found this little feller hanging around at a park near my house. I managed to snap this picture moments before he ran away. Boy was I lucky! These squirrels enjoy eating seeds, fungi, tree bark, and various nuts. These little guys live in dense forests and suburban neighborhoods alike. While they may look adorable, they are able to team up with others to take down their predators.
