The last couple of hunts I went to a spot that I haven't hunted much all summer to avoid the lunatic shot gun squirrel hunter, It's a spot that I've never seen another hunter except for
an occasional bow hunter during turkey or deer season. The red squirrel population in the area has grown and so far I've been seeing plenty of red squirrels, I'll be heading back there
this morning because it's very cool out there this morning and pretty much bug free. I think it's going to be a field jacket day being it's only about 50 degrees out there.
On the 20th I managed to get three red squirrels and a fox squirrel
On the 21st I managed to get three red squirrels

I think you found the hot spot. Around here not many Reds or Grays just Foxes.

Thanks Brent and Dave !!! Brent it seems that the red squirrels in this part of Michigan are on the rise recently, there's always been a lot of them however this year I'm seeing them all over the place.

Thanks Harry !!! I just re-watched the 21st video, that big red squirrel that I shot on the downfall was one of the reds that also moved at amazing speeds, I watched that squirrel the hunt before never being about to get him in my scope good. When he paused on that downfall I was already looking at that downfall through my scope because I knew he'd take that route and sure enough I had my opportunity on the 21st. WOW!!!!!!!!!!! them red devils are fast.
Got another video uploading right now from yesterday.
