This evening I heard a neighbor talking outside my window: ?Yeah, it won’t start, I think the battery’s dead. …oh my god!!! I think it’s a squirrel! Is it nesting?!??
So I popped right out and asked if I could look. Well: pic.twitter.com/P5SUJTB8f1

And in the nest, sure enough: four pink babies pic.twitter.com/1BoSHmCAmQ

I put the box next to her tree, but she wasn’t sure what to make of it. She was furious at us and not connecting the box to her babies. pic.twitter.com/sD5w1KuNM0

I had noticed while moving the nest that the babies could be inspired by motion to make noise. I tried picking up a baby (normally I’d do this with gloves, but who has gloves now??) and it helpfully squeaked, and then suddenly - Mom was there! pic.twitter.com/28w4lbzRvc

After that she didn’t need any help: she knew where her babies were. One by one she came and fetched the remaining three. pic.twitter.com/akCAETYHbe
