[Birdtalk] Flying Squirrel and yard update

[Mark Stackhouse]

Being tied to my house these last few days hasn't been all bad. The 
activity at my feeders has been good - the White-breasted Nuthatch was 
here this morning, along with two Red-breasted. There are lots of 
American Goldfinches that have come in this week, and a lovely male 
Downy Woodpecker paid a visit this morning. But the biggest excitement 
continues to be after dark, a i now have at least two Flying Squirrels 
coming by every night. I now sleep with a flashlight handy, and my cat 
sounds the alarm when they arrive. She seems to be more excited by the 
squirrels than the birds . . .
