Early Start

The 2012 spring nesting season began early as the weather was unusually warm this winter into spring.  By early April, we already had 3 baby squirrels in our care.   The first we named Timmy.  Here's a picture of Timmy on his release box.

Then we quickly added two more babies who were close enough in age that they were raised together as adopted litter mates.  Here's a pic of them being fed.  The one on the left is Tiny.  He was rescued from the street by a kind lady in Cadiz.  Tiny is shy, but that is a good instinct for a squirrel.  On the right is Miss Piggy, named for her voracious appetite.  These two were both released in early May.
