Happy #SquirrelAppreciationDay! Despite the opinion of some people in my home there’s a colony of white squirrels in Toronto’s Trinity-Bellwood Park! I know. I’ve seen them. This is a portrait of one of them, climbing head-down a maple tree, along with the words “Legendary White Squirrel of Trinity-Bellwoods”. It’s sort of become a running joke to question the reality of 🧵

I saw the white squirrel today! I haven’t seen one in years. Found this fellow over 3 city blocks from where I last saw one…so skittish that by the time I got my phone out, all I caught was a wisp of a tail (it’s there if you look closely) it’s a terrible photo of a great moment

Went to the park today so that I could walk while listening to / participating in the #KOWABUNGAnet on the #DODROPINcinference via #Echolink. I ran into a buddy there (another local ham) who just happened to be out for a walk, and we saw one of Olney’s white squirrels posing for a promotional Olney photo. #OlneyWhiteSquirrel #WhiteSquirrel #WhiteSquirrelsOfOlneyIllinois

It’s #SquirrelAppreciationDay you say? Okay!

Here is a picture of a #WhiteSquirrel (leucistic not albino) I took in #BrevardNC in 2021.

It's sort of become a running joke to question the reality of the white squirrels of Trinity-Bellwoods, but they are well documented. You can google it. They even have a street, White Squirrel Way, and a café named after them.

Still thinking of more examples, but here is the info on the white squirrel:

There is also a coffee shop named after it and the white squirrel shows up in Toronto posters and art all the time.

Olney City Park today. It’s a shame that I didn’t get the focus right on the first pic. I really like the composition of that photo otherwise. First time I’ve had that camera out of its case since 2019! These are two different #squirrels. First one was across the street to the northwest of the stage. Second one was over near the east entrance near where the city trucks are typically parked. #OlneyWhiteSquirrel #WhiteSquirrel #OlneyIllinois

We saw three #OlneyIllinois #WhiteSquirrels on our short drive through town yesterday. Always cool to see them out and about. #WhiteSquirrel #OlneyIL

Today we spotted one of Olney’s famous white squirrels as we were driving through the Olney City Park. While the #WhiteSquirrel population is in decline (the city has volunteers do a count every year) it is still not uncommon for us to spot at least one during our drives through town. We have one that lives in our neighborhood. A fun little quirky characteristic of our fun little quirky town. #OlneyWhiteSquirrel
