species of squirrels on our stream: Eastern Grays!

​We belong to Washington DC area, home to 6 species of squirrels. Washington Post article https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/squirrel-week-a-guide-to-dcs-squirrel-species--six-too-many-or-272-too-few/2011/04/05/AFXSZ7kC_story.html 

Our channel is a home to gray squirrels who live in our nestboxes https://youtu.be/xScBcjO6IVQ and dine in our cafe https://youtu.be/eATRROsho0I. We’ve never seen DelMarVa fox squirrels or North American red squirrels. 

Flying squirrels occasionally show up at night but they don’t live in our boxes. 

Eastern chipmunks visit our feeders https://youtu.be/JnF21apH13s and sometimes nestboxes from March to November.

Woodchuck used to live under our shed but unfortunately it left before we started streaming 🤷🏼‍♂️

But we have all kinds of Eastern Grays: melanistic (black), gray, gray-brown and even blond ones!
