Mother Squirrel Retrieves Pups

HD available. No sound, wasn't on at the time.

As Autumn was blooming in 2010 I was taking down my old basketball net that I hadn't used for several years. It turns out that a squirrel nest was tucked in behind it. As I was taking it down the nest fell out with the 2 pups in it (Luckily it seemed to break the fall).

They ran into my garage with a surprising degree of haste for little ones. I hid behind my tree to see of the mother would come and grab them. However, she never went in so I salvaged the remains of the nest, warmed a broom so the pups would climb on it, and then placed them in the nest.

The mother squirrel then came and retrieved them. All was well.
