Their counterparts the gray squirrels are usually active during the hours of the day that are cloudy being active the whole day if the day remains cloudy.įor ground squirrels, the case is almost the same as others though it shows increased activities between midmorning to late afternoon. Fox squirrels are also more active during the hours of the day that are sunny and bright. During such days they are active the whole day through a little bit more during the morning and afternoon.
