We got a big surprise when we spotted this lady in our garage today!
I’ve heard of flying squirrels in our area before, but never seen any proof.
We’d heard a critter scrambling around in the eaves of the garage for the last little while, so we were trying to evict it before it got too cozy. In the process, we discovered exactly who was up there!
Since she’s clearly nursing, we’ll leave her be for now–hopefully they’ll all leave on their own once the young are a bit bigger. And hopefully there’s nothing in the garden she thinks looks tasty, as it’s right next to the garage.
