Night Visitor

With its built-in flash, the new Wingscapes BirdCam 2.0 enables users to capture images of a far wider range of wildlife than ever before. Take this image of a Northern Flying Squirrel recently uploaded to the Wingscapes Photo Gallery by Tina and Steve of Selma, Oregon.

Thanks to their nocturnal habits, Northern Flying Squirrels are seldom seen by humans. Even those who have lived for decades in areas where these fascinating animals occur may never have seen even one. However, as Tina and Steve note, thanks to the BirdCam, a creature that they knew was there was “brought to life.”
