Red Squirrel

Red Squirrels are Noisy Rodents, and they are active before and just after sunset. in midsummer, they spend most of their time cutting cones from pines, spruces and other trees and carrying them to caches near a log, under a tree, or in a burrow. the seeds in the cones will serve as food during the next winter. Red squirrels are able to eat certain mushrooms that are deadly to man. their diversified diet also includes buds, sap, and even bird eggs and nestlings. the squirrels are in turn an important food source for birds of prey.
