Kaibab Squirrel


I was telling my mom about this squirrel, whose habitat is confined to the mixed Ponderosa pine forest of the Grand Canyon's north rim and the surrounding Kaibab forest. A couple of them actually ran across my campsite one morning, but I wasn't quick enough to catch them on the camera, so this is a scan of a postcard...my mom wanted to see them, so I thought I'd post it too...their white tail is very obvious when you see them live.

Love the ears! Glad you and Theo had such a great trip. I admire your sense of adventure! And I've enjoyed all the photos and paintings.

Glad your home safe and sound, as in the sound side of the bay. I'm truly sorry for your loss Sally I hope the trip helped.
