Squirrels which one is native to north America black or grey and what about colour perception.?

There are many squirrels native to North America. It depends upon where you live. The eastern grey squirrel can be black as can the red squirrel. Never saw a black fox squirrel though. I did see some black Abert's squirrels that looked as big as a cat to me.

Squirrels have various color phases, some populations have a dominance of one color phase, but they are all the same species. The common name is eastern gray squirrel, the scientific name is Sciurus carolinensis, many people drop the eastern part of the common name. They have been native to North America for 37 million years.
