Re: A visitor in the tree tonight - 10/25/2010:12 PM
I was up in a tree stand in Maine one year for bear. Doing my best to become a statue and not move or flinch.i heard a squirrel moving around up above me in the tree. I didn't move. The squirrel came down the trunk and jumped onto my shoulder , still didn't move. The squirrel quickly realised it's mistake and jumped up a bunch and scolded me , obviously ticked off he screwed up. I just kinda laughed inside.

Definitely looks like a weasel
Years ago my brother was sitting on a downed log when one came along and hopped up on the opposite end and just looked at him, after it got about 3 or 4 feet away he figured to scare it away so he slapped the tree and shooed it away, must have triggered it because it came at him jumped into his lap, ran up his jacked and bit him on the cheek
It didn’t survive that and it tested negative for rabies so he didn’t have to get any shots but he has a scar where it bit him on the cheek
I would definitely cut that down and put on display in my house

Become one with the forest......
I was leaning against a tree once, watching a game trail, bow hunting. A pair of gray squirrels, one chasing the other, ran up my right leg, jumped onto the trunk and continued on up the tree against which I was leaning.
