Yesterday, I caught a glimpse of a larger than red squirrel sized animal with a long, black bushy tail running along a mature hemlock tree branch on my property. The lot is largely mature spruce, hemlock, and white pine. Located in Carleton, Yarmouth County, it appears to be within or close to the known range of Pine Marten in NS. Does anyone know if Pine Martens prey on red squirrels? I can hear the occasional squirrel in the woods but none are coming to the feeder. > > Thanks, > > John --=_666487dd6232709a717902ad380e7d8b Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"> <html><body> <p>Red squirrels are actually one of their main foods.</p> <p>On 23 Sep 2015 08:11, John Kearney wrote:</p> <blockquote type=3D"cite" style=3D"padding-left:5px; border-left:#1010ff 2p= x solid; margin-left:5px; width:100%"><!-- html ignored --><!-- head ignore= d --><!-- meta ignored --><!-- meta ignored --> <div class=3D"WordSection1"> <p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Cali= bri','sans-serif';">Hi All,<!-- o ignored --></span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Cali= bri','sans-serif';">Last week, I noticed that the squirrels and chipmunks f= requenting my bird feeder disappeared completely, and have not yet made a r= eappearance.
