On my recent visit to Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge, I had a delightful surprise encounter with an Eastern Gray Squirrel. As I was packing up my camera equipment near the entrance, I noticed this charming little creature making its way over to me. Fortunately, this one seemed relaxed in my presence, allowing me to fire off some photos before he scampered off.
While Gray Squirrels are a common sight, they are fascinating creatures. With their distinctive fur, fluffy tails and endearing antics, it’s no wonder they hold a place in many hearts.
