Watching A Squirrel Build A Nest | Critters In The Meadow

July 24, 2022 by Michelle Leave a Comment

As I was settling in for a cup of coffee on the patio this morning, I saw a busy squirrel out of the corner of my eye. So I grabbed my phone to record what was going on. It was really fun to see this squirrel squirreling away leaves in the hollow of the tree. The camouflage is amazing. If you like nature videos and want me to share more like this as the opportunity presents, please let me know in the comments below. Thanks for watching.

About Michelle in the Meadow
I am a suburban gardener located in zone 9A in Northeast Florida. I started growing in this suburban lot in 2019 and have expanded the garden every year. In 2020 I started making Facebook Videos about the garden, and in 2022 created this YouTube channel. I enjoy making content about my garden, what I’m learning, and from time to time, the general vlog, too.
