Fox squirrel and grey squirrel crosses are fairly common.   We have lots of them and we also have some nifty looking all black squirrels. Some are shiny black and some have more grey in them.  The all black ones are very pretty. And of course we have a small herd of red squirrels too but we try to keep them away because they are the little devils that cause damage.

Oh.....and a herd of chipmunks that like to come up on the deck at cocktail time,  walking all over us and waiting for a peanut. Some of them we can (carefully) pet and they just sit on your knee cracking a nut.

I assume the little red squirrel must have moved in an aggressive manner that lead to the neighbor shooting him. Or perhaps he shot him for food, to feed his sixteen hungry kids.

Surely he did not shoot little red simply for his own amusement?

You hit the nail on the head Del. Plus he terrorized the gray squirrels at every chance, they would see him coming and they would scurry away.
