Pteromys volans orii Flying Squirrel

This is a Pteromys volans orii flying squirrel en route back to its nest after foraging at the top of 20m+ tall Japanese elm trees (Ulmus davidiana var. japonica) for an extended period of time during snowfall. The squirrel is carrying a branch with fresh elm buds back to its nest—a takeaway meal to relish at home.
