Nursery

The TreeGuy and his team unfortunately felled another squirrel tree on the job; since the nest was destroyed, he brought the baby home. It isn't much more than three inches long, with a dusting of fine soft fur. The only indication of age is that we know their eyes don't open til five weeks. TreeGuy has raised a few squirrels like this one, feeding them with eye droppers and making little clacking mother noises. They grow to recognize his voice. Here are a couple more views of a very sweet little creature.
