Here in Northern Arizona we have a breed of squirrel that is called the White Tailed Kybab Squirrel. Fun to hunt and great to eat!!!

That's amazing

We have three different squirrels where we live in GA
The Grey-regular size
The Fox-Twice the size of a Grey and they have Black Colored head feet and some Rust color
The Monkey - Twice the size of a Grey and they are all Black with white paws and Nose.

Here's another version of the grey

I call them tree rats, when they damage my belongings.
They gave my Ryobi Sawsall a nasty whoop'n.

was out for exercise ride , in town yesterday on my bike and saw a jet black tree squirrel on someone's front lawn!
I almost ran into a parked car while looking at the prized black squirrel!
So I stopped and looked for witnesses driving by to see if they also saw it, but's no one else even cared? So pulled out my phone and took a picture and you can't even tell it's an animal !
I've only seen two in my life !

Black grey squirrel basically literally hundreds in my forest. Good eating and hunting daylight when still dark, and dusk till almost dark when most active, make a sound like a cat. They've been responsible throughout the years for warning when predators are afoot, can spot a cat, fox , coyote and will keep warning until the predators' disappear.

smell in freezer - I clean my boat chest's with ice & boat soap let it sit for a while at least overnight on the boat. It should work for you Len.

I used Clorox, shower mold & mildew, Oxy Clean, Lysol, Simple Green, and washed with pressure hose clean water.
That smell of thawed out deer, beef, pork, lobster, fish is almost like a dead body.
Even after all those cleaning products and letting the freezer air out it still has a very odd smell. I also took 50 lbs of Charcoal & boxes of Baking Soda, layered it and closed the lid. Did that for one month to see if the charcoal would adsorb the smell. Still had the smell so I threw out the charcoal and loaded it up with new charcoal. Haven't looked at the freezer in about a year. I guess I'll check it out the next week when I am moving the freezers to another part of the basement.
I hate to throw it out since it is relativity a good chest freezer. I guess that if I have vacuum packed items to freeze, what little smell won't effect it.
UPDATE: Just now out of curiosity
I just went to check on the freezer and the charcoal the I put in it had a fine layer of looked like mold on the briquets and there is NO SMELL in the freezer. Will now plug it in and start using again.

No, the white colored squirrel is not an albino. If it was it would have pink eyes. Only human albino can have other than pink eyes with albinism as far as I know.

Good , I was just about to suggest throwing a dead skun in for a while , least it'll change the smell.

I want one for a display, but I don't want one for 160.00 To 350.00, I'm looking for a 50.00 mount that could have chewed off ears.
Here is what they are asking on EBay

saw a hawk grab one of these last week.. they're finally kinda coming back to the rockies after becoming nearly extinct it seems...

There are black squirrels around Fredericksburg in the Texas Hill Country. They look a lot like a grey or cat squirrel but all the ones I saw were living in rock fences and rock piles. Don't remember ever seeing one in a tree, saw some on the cabin roof.

Last year I saw a white goose flying with honkers twice. I don't know if it was a snow or a albino Canadian. They weren't close to me and I didn't have binos on. This year a saw a Candian hanging with some mallards ! Some them on the ice and when they took off the honker went with them following week I saw them again . Im pretty sure. Was 1 honker with mallards .
