It’s funny how the one squirrel is just sitting there almost looks like it’s sleeping while the other squirrel is super active and excited to decorate and get things done. Not sure if it’s a mates pair or just friends but it reminds me of how human couples are when they move into a new home. The man is usually laid back but the wife is eager to decorate and busy planning how to renovate and make the place seem “homey”. The busy squirrel would be the wife in this scenerio
I love how they felt the need to clarify that it was "humanmade". LOL like imagine the squirells out there with a hammer and nails building it themselves. Not to be mean it just gave me a good laugh.
I’m a huge cat & dog lover but also every since I was a kid I’ve loved rabbits, marmots, otters, beavers, chipmunks & squirrels. When I was a little kid My Mom always fed the birds & squirrels in our yard so I became very fond of squirrels & they are nostalgic to me due to those memories. They are adorable & quite smart & very industrious little buggers. Watching them is actually relaxing & their little quirks are funny. Glad these guys have a nice little apartment now that keeps them warm & safe.
I have two Black Squirrels in an oak tree In my backyard. That tree is hollow and it needs to come down so thanks for saying that they breed in June as well. The tree is going to have to come down this fall and I want to get a nice nest box for them so that they can continue their families. I have several walnut trees so they love it!
I love them too but i just bought a small game license to reduce their population where i live in Washington state. The eastern gray is invasive and completely destroying the Douglass squirrel population here. They are incredibly racist lol.
I had a pet squirrel once. I was raised on a farm and I've been around all kinds of animals, wild and tame, and I can tell you from my own experience that squirrels are just as intelligent as a dog or cat. My best friends are animals. I am also a hunter, just like my animals.
@@Aluttuh I have no problem with that as long as you are ethical and respect the animals you hunt. I started hunting Grey squirrels when I was 12 in northeast Wisconsin. My mom had some really awesome squirrel recipes. They are delicious if prepared properly.
I love how every time he brought in new leaves, he touches her as off to say, ‘Just rest dear, kick your feet up! I’ll be back with more!’ If only I could find a man like that! Lol
How do you know the busy one was the male? I’m honestly asking because I was wondering if it was a male and female or two females since I have seen other houses with sisters in it only because they use each others heat in winter so buddy up but not necessarily for raising family. I though probably a couple too but was thinking the one all excited and eager to decorate was the female because wives get excited, want to decorate and make it “homey” where the men are usually more laid back. They are obviously squirrels not humans but it was super weird that only one squirrel did everything while the other was just sitting there, not even being a lookout or anything, almost like it was falling asleep lol
@@SavedByJesus-pi3yu Good point! I guess I just assumed. I did have a husband that did that for me when I was pregnant with his three sons. He just outgrew it as the boys got older. Lol
Thank you so much for this video years ago I lived in Seaback, Washington and I built a squirrel house for the red squirrel that lived in the fir tree next to our house and when we opened it that little squirrel had filled the whole thing tight with the moss that grows on those trees up there And he had made a tunnel to sleep in. I'm sure he was toasty warm all winter, but that was before the days of trail cams or GoPro.
He probably felt it was much better than "living in a van... Down by the river". (Which, it is) I noticed only one seemed to do all the moving in. The other was just chilling.
Ha! Yeah, I bet the Redfin ad stated, “Lovely studio apartment, top floor unit, 1 sq/ft, renovated with lots of light. No HOA fees. Won’t last long. $850,000.”
The babies came down from the nest in the oak tree outside my house on June 2. Pandemonium as they chased each other around for four hours, then all went on their way. It happens that way every year. Last year one stopped to press its face up against the window to look at me. This year, one of the babies has a bright red tail.
I would love to put these around for our neighborhood squirells except my neighbor already hates me because the nuts I give to them get buried in his yard. Eeeek. Very kind of you to do this for them
The chattering is just the first sign of trouble. When the squirrels start forming up and snapping their fingers in unison and waving little knives around while doing some kind of _West Side Story_ dance number, you'll know they have formed a gang and that the park is now their turf.
Such a beautiful, solid and safe home. The interior design makes it fun for every new resident to live in. It fills my heart with joy to see the two of them sleeping cosily together. Thanks to the great architect! He has made two squirrels happy and me ❤ Greetings from the German Baltic coast 🌾🐟🐚💙
I've only ever had fox squirrels in my central illinois neighborhood. Almost 40 years in my current house & I had a gray squirrel show up for the first time last year. I was ecstatic, I'd never seen one before. He got chased by the fox squirrels and only stayed a few months. I hope he's alright, wherever he went. My neighbors all hate me for feeding them and attracting them to the neighborhood. Sorry, not sorry 😊
Hi again. Thanks so much for filming this video along with the information. I have always liked squirrels since I was a child and now I am 55 and still like them. I love all of God's creatures except the mosquitoes lol.
There is no way a human made this. I saw 3 squirrels making a similar wooden box home just yesterday. I think the squirrels started selling them on Amazon, too.
I will look into a nest box. Can you direct me to plans? Many of the trees around me have been removed, and it is impacting the squirrels and birds. I try to leave the acorns, and some leaves, every fall. My neighbor has landscapers do fall cleanup, with their blowers. Nothing is left behind.
do metal hole guards help keep squirrels out? I see what I think are squirrels making bird house holes huge - they looked gnawed up. @@IllinoisBackyardBirdsNWildlife
I know I need to go to bed because I just came here after watching a bunch of bird nest videos including your house wren vid, and I saw this thumbnail and clicked while thinking "oooh squirrels I wonder how many eggs they laid..." *sigh*:
We might as well have squirrels in parliament for all most of the MP.s. can do though they usually work harder at fixing their own nests up, at least our so-called leaders Do. !
Finding one of these as a wild animal must be like finding a really nice rent-controlled apartment in a nice neighborhood.
As someone who is equally happy to see squirrels or birds making use of his back yard I'm glad to see this
@rockwellrhodes7703 good
They look so warm and snuggly with their big fluffy tails curled over them 🥹
Insta-blanket.
giant rats with fluffy tails

I believe the laid back squirrel is pregnant

Enjoyed. thanx for not ruining it with music
Yes! 👏
I love how they remodeled it a little bit and added some insulation.
I’ve always liked squirrels ever since childhood 🐿️

❗️❤️❤️❤️ I love it that you can actually make squirrel houses ! Loved this clip ! Thanks for sharing !!!❤
Thank you for making a nice home for our squirrely friends!
That is just precious, thanks!!!
This video is so precious it warms my heart to see the care and concern you have shown towards these squirrels.

I'm here because of P'nut. I've developed a deep love for squirrels after what they did to him.

Squirrels belong in the wild.

It’s really cool to have a peek into the drey! ❤️🐿
In Florida, we have these squirrels. They are cute. Love the video! ❤
I got my dad a box for his birthday and I hope he enjoys putting it up and the squirrels or some kind of animal makes a home inside. ❤
I love how every time he brought in new leaves, he touches her as off to say, ‘Just rest dear, kick your feet up! I’ll be back with more!’ If only I could find a man like that! Lol
THey don't cheat, either.

They are out there. Try an ANTIFA rally. You will have to make the first move. They are scared to talk to the opposite sex.
@@SavedByJesus-pi3yu
Most likely a momma and her older baby..
We're so glad that they put "this is a human made squirrel shelter" I mean, imagine how many people would of thought it was animal made
youd be surprised
Never underestimate a squirrel.
well they have to put "do not eat" on things like laundry detergent..... so..... im gonna say they needed to put "human made" on this
@@jacobhoffman2553 I almost posted ‘Hey now’ but your comment was spot on! 😂😂
about 331,9 million? :D
Oh..what joy to watch !
That box looks cozy af.😂
HGTV needs to “Branch” out to include nature houses! I’d watch every episode!!!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing
It is relaxing to watch them to be happy and safe ❤
I love squirrels. Where I live the black colouration is a bit more prevalent than the grey form. My town also has a fair number of white ones as well.
Sweet babies.. every corner needs a squirrel box
Thank you so much for this video years ago I lived in Seaback, Washington and I built a squirrel house for the red squirrel that lived in the fir tree next to our house and when we opened it that little squirrel had filled the whole thing tight with the moss that grows on those trees up there And he had made a tunnel to sleep in.

Beautiful squirrels and the nest
This is so cute! I have squirrels that are always around and would love to have a box like this!
Bloody gorgeous. Love how cosy they are in there together 😊🤗🥰
I realize this is a video but that squirrel was wasted no time and claiming that box I can see his point with housing prices
He probably felt it was much better than "living in a van... Down by the river". (Which, it is) I noticed only one seemed to do all the moving in. The other was just chilling.
Ha! Yeah, I bet the Redfin ad stated, “Lovely studio apartment, top floor unit, 1 sq/ft, renovated with lots of light. No HOA fees. Won’t last long. $850,000.”
I had a stroke just reading this 😂
A lot of poor millennials come here lol
@lordvalentine471 the squirrel is say “quick…..grab it before the birds get it”
After a few alterations, the luxurious condo was just perfect! 😊
I love squirrels!!❤️

So beautiful thanks for giving me advice 😅😮
Ive been afraid of squirrels ever since i saw Christmas Vacation. This video really turned me around
That must be so cozy
Thank you for sharing. That's really cool!
Thank you for posting
Great video!
Beautiful fur babies 🐿🐾😍💙🩷
My favorite animal!
Thanks for mentioning it was human made. I would have thought they were very talented squirrels
I feed them🥜 🐿 here in my neighborhood! Jefferson Park, chicago 🇺🇲 !!
Nice footage. Thanks. I might try and make them a home, too.
Midwest squirrels be like "Ope.." 2:52
Какие хозяйственные милые зверушки. Оценили Вашу заботу, радуют любителей белочек. Интересно наблюдать за ними. 🤣😅😂☝🐿
Cute love story ❤
Dude said “this is way too nice, I have to chew it up before I’m comfortable”.
I hope they will be warm this Winter
Really great photography 🇬🇧
Thank you
I would love to put these around for our neighborhood squirells except my neighbor already hates me because the nuts I give to them get buried in his yard. Eeeek. Very kind of you to do this for them
Could you do a video or show how you built this box I feed about 6-8 at my house, I love em!
So cute!
So cute ❤❤
Seems one is doing all the work.
Love watching this 🎉❤
Ive started taking nuts to the park when we walk our dog. There are several squirrels there and they chatter at us when we walk by.
The chattering is just the first sign of trouble. When the squirrels start forming up and snapping their fingers in unison and waving little knives around while doing some kind of _West Side Story_ dance number, you'll know they have formed a gang and that the park is now their turf.
Nice and original video. If baby squirrels can also be recorded, I'm sure it will attract more attention.
Yes, definitely
Squirrel nare cute to me and guys it was the first to see an spoiled squirrel nare cute to me too😂😂😊😊
I have two Staghorn hanging pants in my Live Oak Tree that our squirrels bore into the plants as a nest.
Wish we had Squirrels and Sloths here
I have both red and grey squirrels here in Missouri.
Such a beautiful, solid and safe home. The interior design makes it fun for every new resident to live in. It fills my heart with joy to see the two of them sleeping cosily together. Thanks to the great architect! He has made two squirrels happy and me ❤ Greetings from the German Baltic coast 🌾🐟🐚💙
Cute squirrels 😀😀
They’re thinking "Jackpot!"
I could read that Squirrels mind.."SERIOUSLY?! OH HELL YEAH!!!!"
Cool video
Question: Why does it seem like one gathers the bedding material and the other says inside of it??
I've only ever had fox squirrels in my central illinois neighborhood. Almost 40 years in my current house & I had a gray squirrel show up for the first time last year. I was ecstatic, I'd never seen one before. He got chased by the fox squirrels and only stayed a few months. I hope he's alright, wherever he went.

Ha ha, that’s cool! Wait till they get to the wiring in your car!😊
Worth it
This is so cool 😎 🎉
Hi again. Thanks so much for filming this video along with the information. I have always liked squirrels since I was a child and now I am 55 and still like them. I love all of God's creatures except the mosquitoes lol.
I love it, do you sell these? I’d like several
I like squirrels
There is no way a human made this. I saw 3 squirrels making a similar wooden box home just yesterday. I think the squirrels started selling them on Amazon, too.
😂😂😂😂😂
😂
Ive always wondered were they go after 3 pm .
How big is the hole to enter and exit?
Thanks for watching. The hole diameter is 3 inches. This will protect the squirrels from predators like raccoons, cats and owls.
I will look into a nest box. Can you direct me to plans?
Many of the trees around me have been removed, and it is impacting the squirrels and birds.
I try to leave the acorns, and some leaves, every fall. My neighbor has landscapers do fall cleanup, with their blowers. Nothing is left behind.
Did you buy or build yours? There are some videos here on YT.
I built it, thanks
So would this hut be a race for a bird or squirrel to claim? Looks the same as a bird house
You're absolutely right
do metal hole guards help keep squirrels out? I see what I think are squirrels making bird house holes huge - they looked gnawed up. @@IllinoisBackyardBirdsNWildlife
I love squirrels!!!!!
My dog loves these snacks. Not often he can catch one though
This is great
I know I need to go to bed because I just came here after watching a bunch of bird nest videos including your house wren vid, and I saw this thumbnail and clicked while thinking "oooh squirrels I wonder how many eggs they laid..." *sigh*:
Thanks a lot
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
They needed some lawn chair filling!!
Yes squirrels are omnivors. That's the way they live. It's nature. Much of the earth's critters are omnivorous. It nature. No worries mate.
What camera do you use for the inside? I want to make a house like that and film
Green feathers camera, the link is in the description
❤❤this is so cool 😊
Here in the United States, squirrels also run for political office.
We’d be better off if we had actual squirrels in the halls of Congress.
Yeah wed probably fare better
We might as well have squirrels in parliament for all most of the MP.s. can do though they usually work harder at fixing their own nests up, at least our so-called leaders Do. !
I think you are wrong, you have mistaken the squirrel for his cousin the RAT.
Nice home
Thank you 😊
I may get a nest box for the oak tree in my yard. there are always squirrels in it. Thanks....
Go for it!
Thanks for telling us that it was a human made box. I was just thinking where the squirrels got their screwdrivers from.
😂
They have bookshelves too.
Damn, you got some scrawny squirrels in IL. The fat ones we have here in OH would never fit in that tiny hole
Magnifique 😊❤❤❤
How long does it take to fatten them for the pot?
Where can I buy the squirrel house from ? I do not see it on the site.
Green Feathers don’t sell squirrel houses but Amazon is selling a lot of them
Why do they start gnawing the insides of the box when they first enter?
What camera did you use and how you keep your power supply?
I use Green Feathers camera, it is wired with 12V power supply. If you want to buy one the link is in the description.
@@IllinoisBackyardBirdsNWildlife thank you for quick response. I will get one
Please continue with your video a special when baby’s come up
Yes I will
