Did you know that black squirrels are really grey squirrels with different coloring?Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17822528453563683772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7196958089933062632.post-78661514417624215472012-01-20T19:43:17.986-05:002012-01-20T19:43:17.986-05:00I enjoyed reading your post and the comments.

There are lots of cases where cats have nursed/adopted bunnies, a crow adopted a kitten, and so many stories that I'm not surprised the grey squirrel baby found a home with the blacks. Just fills the heart, no?Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17822528453563683772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7196958089933062632.post-34489462809967614052012-01-20T09:42:07.423-05:002012-01-20T09:42:07.423-05:00I have never heard of wild animals adopting that...I have never heard of wild animals adopting that way.<br /><br />How neat that you have been able to follow them from birth.gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7196958089933062632.post-75293746050437459322012-01-19T10:14:19.514-05:002012-01-19T10:14:19.514-05:00Jeph - I'm quite sure the grey was adopted.

The black squirrels are known for being more aggressive and attacking the gray squirrels. I wonder if yours are siblings and there's some recessive gene stuff going on, or if one is adopted?
