The squirrels around here aren’t very friendly, but they are an unusual colour. There’s a large black squirrel population around North Hertfordshire, UK. This one was in Letchworth Garden City.

Gotta love them black squirrels! Did you know they’re the same species (Eastern Grey Squirrel), but in a different color? :O

I always thought they were a different specie before looking it up
I didn’t! I know they are gradually taking over from the regular grey squirrels (which is good as they’ve all but eliminated the native reds).
I did see a rare albino squirrel a couple of years ago. I couldn’t get a very good photo, so it looks like the usual sort of indistinguishable nonsense cryptid photo.
