Squirrel diet depends on the habitat. Squirrels will pretty much eat anything that won't kill them. Tree nuts are the main source of food, (acorns, walnuts, hickory nuts, etc) but they will also eat seeds, mushrooms, leaves, pine nuts, flowers, fruits, fungi, lichen, roots, tree buds, twigs, and bark.
They are primarily vegetarians, and do not normally eat meat. However, if food is scarce, they have been known to eat bird eggs, snails, and insects.
