what is it?

I am feed the flying squirrels out of my bird feeders a night. Not intentionally. There must be about 10 of them out there year round. Wondered several years ago why all the bird feed was disappearing so fast. They are pretty cool. Wouldn't want them in the house though. Most people don't even know they exist because they are nocturnal. Cat killed one a few years back and brought it in the house. Things are feather light and mostly skin, for gliding. Also spotted them at 3 am getting ready to go fishing a few years back thought they were bats. They make a high pitch squeaking sound, and can run up a 80 ft. tree in about 3 seconds. Then they glide to the next place. P.M.
