Just wanted to share some pictures of our short term visitor, a Southern Flying Squirrel. He is currently back in the wild after a few weeks of rehabilitation. He got caught up in some crossfire and was accidentally shot. We called him Lucky because he only had a broken foot, which we think happened in the fall, and a missing toe. We tried to keep him in a hamster cage but he decided he liked one of my potted plants better. Prior to his release we lost him in the house for about 3 days. The only time you would see him was at night running across the curtains. They are so small and extremely fast. Believe me he drove our Jack Russell crazy. When we finally found him sleeping inside a vase on top of the kitchen cabinets we decided it was time for Lucky to find him a new home.
