Do squirrels ever walk, or stroll?

All I ever see them do is scurry. Or race. They scurry (or race) from place to place. Or they scurry a foot or two and then stop. Then scurry forward a bit more. And stop. Etc.

I have not spent much time studying squirrels, obviously. I am usually in my head having ideas instead, or brooding. Or looking at a computer screen.

I could have gone to wikip to look for an answer to this question.

There are people who study squirrels and such for a living, correct?

My guess is that front legs move in unison with each other and back legs work in unison with each other, so strolling is not an option. I still have not made any attempts via Google to confirm this.
