I always check out tree holes.  What a surprise to find a flying squirrel inside this one!  This is the first one I've ever seen.

It got down to -1 Fahrenheit recently and snow has covered the ground for a while, so I wanted to see if the squirrel I saw last time was alive and possibly needed some food (I brought peanuts).   I was pleasantly surprised to find that there are at least two in there, possibly even three, but I only saw two at a time, so I couldn't be sure.  They were happy to get the peanuts I brought and were chattering away.

Thankfully, the flying squirrels survived the couple record-breaking -18 degree nights we recently had.  Yet another surprise---there are three in there, not two!  They were delighted to receive the peanuts I brought and all three worked together to move them up inside the tree somewhere.
