It's a fun way to live.) Recently walking by the lake in Oakville, Ontario (near Toronto) with a normal-sighted friend, I pointed at a squirrel and asked him "What am I seeing, because that looks like a burgundy squirrel with an almost fuschia tail!" He is used to these questions from me, but that day, he too looked at the squirrel in amazement, and said "He kind of has a bright yellow tail, but I've never seen a squirrel that looks like that." People walking by thought we were both nuts, talking about yellow vs fuschia squirrels! So we went home, got on the Internet and learned about blonde squirrels. This was one of those moments we will never forget! There are times when colour blindness should be called colour enhancement!Albigensiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09637799355009655630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258152830537897530.post-68201609472006324352016-08-25T17:43:16.592-04:002016-08-25T17:43:16.592-04:00i have seen a number of blonde squirrels in Ganano...i have seen a number of blonde squirrels in Gananoque, Ontario in past few years! they are truly beautiful - one was almost white!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08356621737079542940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258152830537897530.post-78390586538451356822015-03-26T22:43:53.730-04:002015-03-26T22:43:53.730-04:00Hi,I am in Ontario Canada.

Very strange. Usually squirrels here are here for years<br />. It is a mystery this one.Thank you for your comment.
