Two Douglas' Squirrels 60 miles and one day apart: I spotted this recent mama squirrel chowing down (okay, I heard her first) at Tryon Creek park Wednesday, and then found the woods on Cape Meares on the coast full of smaller Douglases the next day.
These little guys are said to prefer or require old-growth or "mature second-growth" forests (Tryon is the latter), which justifies my happiness whenever I see them. It seems like a sign of a happy conifer forest!
