Squirrel's
Drey.
The gray squirrel is native to the eastern and
midwestern United States, and to the southerly portions of the
eastern provinces of Canada. Gray squirrels build a type of nest,
known as a drey. The drey is about the size of a football. It is
made of twigs, often with the leaves still attached. It is built
fairly high in a tree and lined with dry grass, shredded bark, moss
and feathers. A summer drey is usually quite flimsy and lodged
among small branches. Sometimes the squirrel may make its nest in a
hollow trunk of a tree. In the winter, a larger, thicker drey is
built, usually on a strong branch close to the trunk, and a
squirrel will lie up in this in very cold weather, coming out now
and then to search out hidden stores of food.
