12 hours of peaceful squirrel sleep (recorded nestcam livestream in nestbox 3 @ August 24, 2021)
This squirrel came in after a heavy rain and slept for more than 14 hours (only 12 hours are captured in this stream recording). You cannot see her come and leave the nest but the video will give you an idea how often squirrels will move in their restful sleep. On some nights squirrels will wake up and leave the nest often, on other nights they’ll stay inside all the time. Squirrels usually get to bed around 6-8pm and wake up around 6-7am. They may come over for a day nap during the day, but often they would stay on a branch rather than returning to a nestbox. Why this squirrel slept for so long this time around - I am guessing she was tired after a stressful heavy rain that kept her from sleep late in the evening, before she found this nestbox.
