Default Squirrel Intrests Turkey















Seemed the turkey had never seen a white squirrel before. It stayed close for quite awhile; the squirrel kinda wanted to play. The turkey kinda displayed .

I have seen a albino white squirrel only once before in the news paper. That is pretty cool to see that squirrel. I would feed the devil out of him. Now black squirrels are real common at my Dad's house. And they are pretty to watch. Normal squirrels are there too. All I have are those darn pine squirrels. They are little rodents of destruction! I used to shoot them. But have mellowed in age. I just quite feeding around the house and all the animals now kind of stay away.

This is the first white squirrel we have seen here since moving in (15 year). We saw a white squirrel about 25 year ago on the other side of town; they are seen (rarely) by folks living in Rapid City. Have never seen a black squirrel in Rapid City, nor have i heard of a sighting. Whilst living in Great Falls i had a black one come and meet me when i went out to get the paper in the morning. He was quite a beggar, and would take nuts out of my hand. Probably saw three black squirrels over 25 year in Great Falls. Never saw a single white squirrel in Great Falls.

The turkey certainly behaved as though he had never seen a white squirrel before.
