Squirrel!
During some field work, Paul, Bryan, and I were in the field and totally stumbled upon a really cool find - we observed a melanistic Gray Squirrel. Melanistic, meaning all black, is a development of dark-colored pigment in the skin or appendages of an animal. It is the opposite of albinism. This was definitely a rare sighting on the Ridge!
