It’s news to me! We have White Squirrels in Toronto.
They seem only to be in Trinity Bellwoods Park. Yay! I live very close to the park, and will now be scouting the white squirrel.
I was wondering why an artist had chosen to paint the squirrels white, on this garage door.
They are rare.
One was found dead a couple of years ago, and the white squirrel people went crazy.
I hope I get to see one!

Excellent … and to get a pic of the honoree is the topping on the sundae. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9muzyOd4Lh8 … PS: Reminder: Tuesday night special announcement (on Special page/tab)
I so thought of you making this post. This song you adore was the inspiration for the title. Thank you for the link to the song by Moody Blues!
Okay, I’ll be there on Tuesday!
I figured that my be the connection.
😀
Great shots Resa. That is such a gorgeousl creature. I would love to see them. I wonder if they are Albino squirrels. I have t been to the link Going now. ❤️
There is actually a white squirrel, although very rare in the world. No one is sure weather Toronto’s white squirrels are of the white breed or albino. I’m floored by their beauty! OMG! ❤
Me too. I’ve never seen one before!
Fantastic. The artwork and the squirrel. So much fun and so beautifully done. Love it. Going to reblog it. Thank you so much. ❤
I want white squirrels in my yard.

TY, Gi!!!! White Squirrels are soooo gorgeos!
I just had to follow you again. Somehow, you were dropped from my Reader. I hate when that happens.
It happens to me, too!
I’ve seen one. They are amazing. Black squirrels surprised me too.
Rock’n’Roll squirrels! Perfect.
“Squirrels in white satin. Never reaching the end…” They are gorgeous and so is the mural. There were black squirrels in Ritiro (a large park in Madrid, Spain) that would climb up on us to beg for food. I have never seen a white squirrel.
…. and I have never seen a black squirrel!
The song “Knights in White Satin” is a classic gem!
I’m so glad you like squirrels! I know people call them tree rats, but nary a squirrel has ever freaked me out. Rats, are a different story.
We have red squirrels, and other brown ones in our back yard.
You know, I have never seen a chipmunk. I would love to see a chipmunk!
We have lots of chipmunks in the mountains in the desert southwest. They seem to prefer higher altitudes Like 7,000 to 12,000 feet above sea level. I like rats and squirrels and pretty much all animals. We have ground squirrels around the property who like to sit in front of the window from time to time.
Huh! I didn’t know chipmunks prefer high altitudes! I’m from the prairies, and Toronto is only 250 feet above sea level… so there you go!
They like higher altitudes in these parts. Not sure what they like farther north. I live at 5,000 feet and I’ve never see any in my neck of the woods.
I was over on your blog. I left a comment on the cranes post. Then, suddenly I could not comment on the balloons post. Then I went back to the cranes post to let you know, and couldn’t post there!
I don’t blame you for being frustrated.
Anyway, I just wanted to say the balloons are art!
I didn’t get put into your Spam folder? That causes many problems. I try to check mine regularly.
Hi Resa. Zenfolio as been having problems. For awhile no one could comment. They are still working on other problems that have me very frustrated with them at the moment. It’s probably easiest for you to comment on WP.
I do comment on WP, but I am having problems commenting on several WP blogs. I’ve asked everyone to check if I am in their Spam folders. If not, it’s a WP glitch, and they usually clear up in several days.
Surprisingly, there’s nothing in my WP spam filter right now. I usually have lots from poker and other spammy sites.
Stopped by to see that creative eye of yours and what you have found
I found a lot recently. The next piece is a beauty!
Thank you Sheldon!!!!!
I didn’t know they existed either! I love the art, it’s amazing. … But now I want a white squirrel as a pet
I just shared this with my husband and he said, “Everything in Canada is white. They have polar squirrels.”
Hahaha! Your hubby is very funny! Lol! ❦
He makes me laugh often
They are very gorgeous!!!
How do you catch a Polynesian squirrel?
Climb a tree and act like a coconut.
xoxoxo ❤
How about if I acted like a tree, and climbed a coconut? xoxoxo ❤
That should work ! I think that we missed taking our medication today, don’t you ? Heehee 😉 xoxoxo ❤
They are amazing, Resa. Your next post is one where you feed it with strawberries. Squirrels love strawberries 🙂 but I don’t know about the white ones 🙂
I will take strawberries next time I go to the park. TY for the tip, Hanna!
You are most welcome 🙂 They even like them green 🙂
Hanna xoxo
I love you news – always uplifting and full of abundant joy!
Thank you, Rebecca! xo
Great, another squirrel for Wayne to fall in love with 😉
Whenever I go to that park, I’ll take food and feed the White Squirrels for Wayne. I’ll try to take pics! 😘
That is amazing. Love it. ❤
TY, Elizabeth! ❤ I was just on your blog, could like but not comment. It's probably just a WP glitch that will clear up in a few days.
Your photos are gorgeous.
Thank you, Resa. Yeah, it’s a WP thing, I have had the same problem many times on different blogs. ❤
Such a cutie-pie, Resa.. 🙂
We don’t have squirrels here in Oz; more the pity, they are gorgeous! When we were in London last year I took some happy snaps of the squirrels in Hyde Park. The londoners must think it’s pretty crazy (to take pics); they are such an integral part of life there! As they must be for you; except, of course, for these beautiful white ones…
I do hope you get to see them, or one, or lots… Hahaaa.. 😀
xoxoxo
Huh, no squirrels in Oz!
It’s hard to believe there is any place on earth that doesn’t have squirrels.
I WILL see a white squirrel, even if I have to carry a bag of peanuts with me for the rest of my life! 😀 xoxoxo
If you need help, we have LOTS of peanuts in Oz… Any help I can give is yours… 😍
🥜😘
Beautiful art work and photos, Resa! I’ve never heard of a white squirrel, either, but they’re gorgeous! There’s so much we don’t know. 🙂 But we learn something new every day! Wonderful! xo
I was by the white squirrel park yesterday, but didn’t have time to stop and squirrel watch. Perhaps this is why there is still so much to learn? We don’t have time to learn. We are just busy doing. 😀 xo
Saw you’ve been to Art Gowns. I’ll be back over there in a couple of days. I know it sounds a bit crazy, but both my blogs have different log ins, and I can’t be on both at once.
You’re right, we need to slow down. 🙂 And I do understand about your blogs. No worries. There are only so many hours in a day! 😘
😀
Beautiful art, thank you for sharing!
You’re welcome!! 😀
Thanks, it is really beautiful!
❦
Cute, thanks!
They’re gorgeous! I’ve seen red squirrels, grey and black, but never white ones. What’s also gorgeous is the striking background colour of camo oranges, yellows and reds for them to play on. Bravo to Karen Roberts and thanks to you for posting :)x
OMG! Can’t believe I missed this comment!
Yes, it really is a very pretty garage door. I’m always blown away by the unique ideas from different artists! 😀 x
I love the title, and always love the moments I share with your gifts! Hugs!
Thank you, Wendell, and HUGS!
Cuteness overload!!! Good luck on your hunt for the mystical white squirrel! In Vancouver, they’re mostly grey or black. xoxo
Same here, but there are a few red ones in the yard. xoxo
Love the colors n this one. The little buggers look like they are prepping for winter.
Lol! You mean the little white buggers! 😆
Laughing. Yeah
😀
I like these cheerful colors. Albino squirrel eyes are actually red, not black 🙂 You can see it in the photograph. It makes me think that these squirrels are very very rare. Probably it is the only such family in Toronto 🙂
An entire family has been spotted. One was found dead a few years ago, now many more have been seen and photographed.
Torontonians are crazy about these squirrels! 😀
Poor creatures are so vulnerable since predators can see them from afar. If their numbers grow, they will have a chance to survive. White Toronto Squirrel, wishing you a long and happy life! 🙂
Me too!!!! 😀
Amazing color.
Beautiful!
Squirrels are the best. One of my favourite rodents. Other than hamsters. Can you send out a press release for Toronto, please? We need more hamster graffiti.
Ah, yes, more Hamster Graf. Well, if you move here, you should be able luxuriate in rodent graf!
Yeah, good point! I’d be the hamster graf gangsta. I hear Toronto is pricy, so we’d have to see there. But I did my IELTS English test today. One of the weirdest experiences I’ve ever had. She kept asking me about shoes during the speaking portion… shoes!
Huh…. shoes?
Well, Toronto is very pricey. Have you considered Calgary?
NO! I haven’t. Looks good, though. I don’t want to get ahead of myself, anyway. Yonks off yet. I might not even clear the Express Entry stuff. I’ve been arrested 337 times, for instance.
Ah, yes, but were you convicted? eh?
No. No, I wasn’t. To be fair, Toronto is pricey but it’s nowhere near as bad as London. It looks like, anyway. I’m keeping all options open. Except Montreal. As I don’t speak le Frenchness.
Reblogged this on My Life on the Chicago # 36 Bus and commented:
I just had to share this
Thank you!
Adorable Torontonians! I like their beatific look. Hope you get to see one soon.
ME TOO!!!! 😀
They ARE pretty cool, aren’t they?
I wish I had white squirrels in my yard! They are very cool!!!
