Richardson Ground Squirrel - Frank Lake, AB           I learned something new today. The critters I always thought were Prairie Dogs are actually Richardson's Ground Squirrels. Apparently, The only Prairie Dogs in Canada live in the very southern section of Saskatchewan. Who knew. These little guys are also called gophers, which is also not the right name. Either way, they are certainly fun to watch.             Michael W Klotz - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
