Here’s the thing about red squirrels...I dig their whole vibe. Here’s a thread of me just being delighted about them. 
An explanation of their cache sites or middens. FYI I totally blanked on the word “scales” (you can tell by the long pause) but I meant to say scales not leaves.
My favorite midden yet!!! BTW did you know they can chatter without stopping for up to an hour?!
Seriously, look at that pile.
A tour of squirrely squirrel’s highway system, and I found a nest!
Maybe I like them so much because we share a love of mushrooms. I welcome a specific ID from any #mycologists
Guh! Look at it carry it around. I love it! (BTW the jays also love mushrooms but I’ve been unsuccessful at getting good pics of that 😩).
Anyway I love red squirrels. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Another find from a squirrel midden! A snowshoe hair foot. Another favorite snack of cute boreal animals
