They are cool Ryan. I had an encounter with one I was not proud of. As many know, I work for a Telco co. I climbed this pole to a terminal and opened it. I saw something go out of it but didn't think. There was a nest in the terminal so I knocked out. In the process I saw two little pink hairless critters. At that point I felt like crap but we can't have them in the terminals. Suddenly this flying squirrel hit the side of the pole. She ran down the pole, picked up one of her pups (?) and climbed up the pole past me and glided over to another tree. She flew back, down the pole, grabbed the other one and up the pole past me and over to the tree. I can assume they made it but I'll never know. I still felt like crap.
