Took a 104 yr. old lady for a walk…
 

Spent a little alone time after work today in a local wooded area
with one of my very special ladies. :)

Those are some big grays for certain! the biggest I've seen that I can recall. Just saw one I'd have loved to have mounted the other day, sable black with a white tip on it's tail. I've got a plan.....

what a trophy that would be.. a black squirl with a white tipped tail...seen a few black squirls in my life...they were in the miss delta..no black squirls in my area... charlie

Charlie,

My main squirrel hunting area is just fox squirrels for the most part. I've killed a couple of blacks in other spots since I've lived up here though. I'm going to really work at getting that white tipped one, it's at a friend of mine's place and she sees it regular.


Mike,

How are those big greys for eating? I've always favored grey over fox in the skillet, they just seem to have more flavor.

The wife cooks them down in water, picks the meat off the bones, then makes potpie with the meat. Just like chicken potpie but better in my honest opinion. :)

The Blacks moved into my neighborhood about three years ago. They are very aggressive, run the greys off and tease the dogs like mockingbirds. When they come onto the decks, I immediately trap and relocate them. They are pretty destructive to the herb pots.
