Squirrels are opportunistic omnivores - they will eat both animal and plants. The image of a squirrel always opting for nuts is wrong - they will eat almost any seed or fruit as well as eggs, baby birds, birds, snakes and small mammals.

However, most urbanized squirrels in cities or parks mostly eat insects, eggs, seeds, fruits/berries, and nuts. If they have come to expect seeds and nuts from humans, they will look for those first.
