A Halloween cobweb that had blown loose from someone's yard. It was headed right for my head with pure, evil intent.

and..............

A black squirrel!

Ah see, black squirrels are more unlucky than black cats it seems. Giving cats a bad name all these years.

They're rats all right. Rats with bushy tails. But they sure do taste good! :D

We have lots of Black Locust trees around my house and most of our tree rats are the black variety.

I really don't like 'em and if one were in my path, well one less in this world to eat/dump all the birdseed is not gonna make me cry.

I saw a solid white squirrel when I was riding through my friend's
neighborhood the other day, first time I've EVER seen one here in
my whole life! It was cool. I think it was maybe just albino.

I don't see to many wild animals in my neighborhood. If I saw a black squirrel i'm pretty sure i would be kinda excited :) Except if I had a to dodge one.

The only animals aside from the house variety I've seen while scooting so far is a cute family of racoons.

Actually the black squirrels are a dime a dozen around here. They routinely terrorize the native gray squirrels.

Squirrels have factions? Or are those just a band of pirate squirrels. I would say ninjas, but you actually saw them, so that's unpossible. :lol:

If we're talking about small furry creatures, shouldn't it be opossum-able? :mrgreen:
