What is this?
Caught on trail cam last week, is my side-yard.
There are 2 squirrels that play on the stone fence, near the cam; one red; one grey.
This is in the Northeast Kingdom of very, very rural VT.
Could it be a piebald of some sort?; it's about the size of a grey squirrel; a love child?
Blowing up the pic, changed the color a bit; its coat is a very, very light, orange/cinnamon color.
Would love suggestions; even snarky ones. :)

Tourist #1: What the hell is that?! [ squints ] What the hell is that? [ chuckling at himself ] What's that danged thing doing here! How did that get here? What the hell is that?! [ squints ] What the hell is that?! How'd that dang deal get here?! [ turns off-camera ] Hey! Come on over here and look at this deal!
[ Tourist #2 wanders onto the set to take a bewildered look ]
Tourist #2: What the hell is that?
Tourist #1: I don't know what the hell that is!
Tourist #2: What in the hell is that?!
Tourist #1: Hey, you kids! Get away from there!
Tourist #2: I would not mess with that thing..
Tourist #1: Don't put your lips on it!
Tourist #2: [ ever curious ] What the hell is this?
Tourist #1: Well.. get a photo of me with it, anyway!
[ Tourist #1 hands camera to Tourist #2, then walks away from camera view to have his picture taken ]
Tourist #2: Be careful with that thing. [ snaps Tourist #1's picture, as spark of ingenuity develops on his face ] Oh, I know what that is!
Tourist #1: [ returns next to Tourist #2 ] Well, what the hell is it?!
Tourist #2: [ looks closer ] What is that thing..?
Tourist #1: I don't even care what it is. [ pause ] What the hell is that?!
Tourist #2: I don't know what the hell that thing is.
Tourist #1: Oh, I know what it is!
Tourist #2: [ seeing it ] Oh, yeah.. oh yeah.. [ chuckles ]
[ Tourist #1 & #2 walk away from the stage. A beat, before their heads peer back into frame, more inquisitive than ever. ]
Tourist #1: What the hell was that?!

Just a blonde squirrel. Don’t ask it any tough questions. Looks like maybe strawberry blonde so it might have a bit of a temper. Careful what you say to it.

It's...it's...it's Little Foot!
Seriously, color variations are not that unusual in the squirrel population.
Years ago, in my Game Warden time...I got calls about solid black, solid white, piebald, orange, grey with black stripes, etc.
It's a genetic thing.
Your pic reminds me of one I saw in southern Alabama, on private timber company land, very blond...not white.
I mention timber company land, as it was managed and had not been legally hunted for nearly 20 years at the time.
Flack Lumber Company, on the Pea River...had various colored squirrels...white deer, solid black raccoons, hen turkeys with beards...lot of variations, none of which were particularly unusual, but typical of a previously clear-cut (in the early 20's) forest, allowed to grow back wild over a period of 50 years.
Also...closer to where you are...Seneca Army Depot...where solid white deer and solid black squirrels are normal.
Caused by the tri-level 22 foot fencing and a 70 years exclusionary zone.
Call it inbreeding, I guess.
