Topped out a small maple on a bigger job the other day and left up the stub. Noticed that there was a hole and came down. Cut down another tree that was to be removed. Was cleaning up and decided to cut the spar down. On the way down about 7 chipmunks came running out, or what I thought was chipmunks. All of them had jumped off the spar to neighbouring trees. This one was on a small sapling then decided to jump over to a larger tree where all the rest of them went. It tried to make a lower branch on the larger tree but the sapling was too short. All of a sudden the thing stretched out and flew on to the tree. Flying squirrels. Then got the HO out to tell her and one flew down the hill and was going through trees and then disappeared. We couldn't stop talking about it, and will be in many conversations that I will have in the future. Did feel real bad about cutting down their home though.
