There are 2 wires on the meat showing in the photo. The top of the wire is 4.875 inches to the screw, based on the photo of the yard stick. Looking at the side shot and the front shot this animal is slightly over 8 inches long from nose to tail. This appears to preclude northern flying squirrel. It also looks less beefier than the one seen three days later. The neigbourhood is primarily maple/oak dominant at about 60 - 70% and white/blue spruce, red pine, cedar mix for the remaining 30-40%. In the immediate vicinity of the feeder it is 80% hardwoods. This squirrel was 14 feet from the camera. Given a discussion with a researcher it appears that the tail is not the right shape to be considered a southern flying squirrel. It is likely a northern but just a very small one.
