Some of the black squirrels are black squirrels by birth. Some of them are grey squirrels that spend a bit of time rolling around in their black walnut stash, like Scrooge McDuck rolling around in his money pile. It's a fact!
I have both grey and black squirels in my neighborhood in very large numbers. I suspect they are the basis of the Ocelot's diet. In the case of the impending earthquake we like to call the "Big One" (I'm not sure why they named a potential future earthquake after my junk, but then I don't like to think about it too hard) they will likely form the basis of my diet too.
Oddly (or perhaps not) they don't socialize across color lines. Apparently the Mayor of the neighborhood is a Crow named Jim...

Black squirrels AND Mel Ferrer to boot!
AFAIK, the black squirrels are a regional thing. I have never seen them outside of the DC/Mid-Atlantic area.
But I don't get out much...
Also Vancouver.
Present for ZRM!
P.S. I'd like to thank Jennifer for this link.
Well then, I think you should.

Three squirrels and a tennis ball walk into a TROO KVLT.
Bartender sez, "What are you, nuts? We don't serve your kind here."

Can you teach the squirbulls how to play tennis?
Or at least whack 'em with tennis racquets?
