The Red Squirrels Incredible Speed

(Please excuse my extremely crude and poor drawing, but you get the idea)


We have often talked about squirrels sense of smell and

how their nose and ears are their primary senses.

We've also talked about squirrel pee

and how they use it to mark safe places or routes.

That's how they are able to run through the tree tops at incredible speeds,

despite having poor eye sight.

That's because their routes are already pre-planned and marked by pee. That's why they can get extremely confused and disoriented, whenever trees gets cut down or trimmed, their highway simply got cut off.

Like human road construction, out of the blue blocking you from going to work.

So if you absolutely have to trim your trees, make sure that the tree tops are still connect with each other, otherwise, you WILL lose your visitors, cause they don't have any roads on your garden anymore.
