Dave the squirell's know their home turf by sound
not by internal compass
they remember things like sirens from the local fire station
church bells
a particular dog's bark
the sound of a dump truck squealing
so if the wind carry's that sound to them
they'll know which way is home

Interesting stuff, Rav, I had no idea. I know they have a great sense of smell
too as they keep trying to pry the lid off my metal garbage pail where
I keep my sunflower seed.
If they hear the sounds of the old neighborhood they'll have to swim
a 1/2 mile over the resivoir, then find the bridge over the river to
get back here.
When everything is frozen they betta think twice
about running over the resivoir with the pair of Bald Eagles we have
wintering there.
