Flying squirrels are really neat but the name is somewhat of a misnomer since they glide, not fly, but gliding squirrel just doesn't sound as good. Those big eyes are something else.
I had one nesting in a hackberry tree that I cut down and discovered too late it was in there. Luckily the dog didn't see it running away.
The one in the bird box was funny. I found out when some birds were trying to get in the box and something kept popping out the hole chasing the birds away. When I started to open the box the squirrel started coming out so I carefully closed up the box and left it alone.
