Benjamin Franklin loved Eastern gray squirrels…loved them so much that during his diplomatic services (1770) in England he sent word to his wife Deborah to send some of the gray creatures across the pond to him. He would then give them as gifts.
Mungo was the treasured gray who met a rather viscous death…so loved was the furry gray that Mr. Franklin wrote a special elegy.
Golden squirrel love and paws up!

My husband loves squirrels. We have a town nearby that has black squirrels and he is quite jealous of that fact as we don’t have those by us!

Squirrels are interesting to watch, but can be very destructive. Why they choose to gnaw on my pressure treated deck when they have a whole forest of trees is beyond me.
