Default Where'd the Squirrel go?

Something Ridge Runner said in another thread got me thinking...

Fifteen years ago it wasn't uncommon to shoot the limit (6) during a morning or afternoon hunt. It didn't happen every time. But it wasn't rare either.

Several times I've even shot a limit out of one tree during one sit.

I don't spend near as much time chasing squirrels as I used to. Most of my free hunting time is spent trying to get deer in the freezer for the family.

But when I do get out it's a good hunt if I get a couple. Three would be a great hunt.

That's for my spots in Ohio as well as PA.

So, what happened to the squirrel. Is it like that for others? Is it a cyclical type thing?

What's going on?
