MORE SQUIRRELS 



by squirrels. On investigation, I found, instead 

 of red squirrels as I had expected, four or five 

 little flying squirrels about half-grown. I only 

 saw them for a few seconds at most, as they 

 scrambled away in all directions and disappeared 

 completely. But in those few seconds I became 

 aware that young flying squirrels are simply the 

 most delightful things in existence. And I still 

 look forward to the time when I shall discover 

 another family of them, without the slightest fear 

 of being disenchanted.
