Three Young Squirrels Leave The Nest

Video: Three Young Squirrels Leave The Nest

The three baby squirrels raised in a woodpecker nest box and  transferred to a nest high in an Oak tree have now left the nest and are out on their own as part of the Backyard society - all safe and healthy. Gray Squirrels typically are not  totally weaned and depart their nest until they are almost as big as adult squirrels. You can tell by their behavior they are quite tentative.

Funniest and Cutest Baby Squirrels - Really !

Video: Funniest and Cutest Baby Squirrels - Really !

Funniest and Cutest Baby Squirrels is not an exaggeration (or"kittens" as squirrel young are called) - perhaps gentle, innocent, and curious. All sorts of words will come to your mind as you watch this video. A mother Red Squirrel high in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina has her hands full raising these precocious youngsters in an Eastern Screech Owl nest box. Try and count how many little squirrels there are as you watch the video! They are still totally dependent on nursing and this is their first morning really beginning to explore the world outside the nest box. Apparently young animals just can't resist squeezing their heads through a nest box entrance - see how owlets do it at:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTmQ1mnjAJc  "Funniest and Cutest Baby Screech Owls"

The music at the end is the appropriate  "Get Outside" by Jason Farnham, courtesy of the YouTube Audio Library.
