This adorable Red Squirrel was busy licking away at the bark of this Paper Birch growing in the Cranberry Glades Botanical Area, in the Cranberry Wilderness in Pocahontas County, WV. I read where these squirrels will "tap" Maples for their sugary sap, and return to lick the sap after the water has evaporated away. I wonder if they like the wintergreen flavor of Birch?
