Red peering out

I'm attaching a photo of a red squirrel not taken at FWG, but sent because it is interesting in a way. It shows a red peering out of a cavity, in an area just off Moodie Drive where red squirrels are surprisingly abundant, and greys are few. I say "surprisingly" because this is an almost entirely deciduous area. What is also notable is the lack of tree nests. There are a few here and there, but most look old and ready to fall, only a few look usable. However, there is a plethora of snags or standing dead trees and the squirrels (both red and grey) are making very good use of them.
