Squirrel Surprise! _VERIFIED_

After emerging from the bathroom, the family dog, Dixie, gave the squirrel a run for their money and chased the critter throughout the home. The pooch came up empty, after the wild squirrel seized the opportunity to launch itself into the family's tree-finally out of reach from the family's pet.

Squirrel Surprise!

Taylor opened a window and managed to flush the squirrel out with a little encouragement from a dust mop. Along the way, Mom got some advice and commentary from her kids, Colton, 11, Savannah, 8, and Caroline, 8. (Taylor Stading/Facebook)

Commenters on the now viral video noted the similarities between the Spading's holiday adventure with the famous "Christmas Vacation" scene. In the beloved Christmas movie, Clark Griswold investigates the family's tree after hearing a funny squeaking sound. After finding the squirrel, he and his family are terrorized by the mean critter in the hilarious scene.

If you're lucky you'll hit the area about the time the alfalfa has been cut, but as long as the grass isn't too tall you can see the squirrels and you'll have a good time.

Surprise Valley Chamber of Commerce in Modoc County has hosted an annual Squirrel Roundup for 25 years in 2016. The event involves bringing your guns and shooting the pesky varmints known to eat crops. Held usually in February or March, you come and plan to spend a day or weekend. The Chamber of Commerce may help you with making arrangements and filling in the details on the event, which involves getting permission to shoot squirrels on the locals' property. Apparently the event is designed mostly as fun, but it also serves the purpose of thinning out the overpopulations of ground squirrels especially.

The little squirrel didn't seem the least bit afraid and was still surveying the surroundings when Urness returned from the house with his camera. The 35mm Minolta also has a big zoom lens, so Urness was able to take several close-up shots. At closest, he was within a few feet of the little critter, which had huge eyes and large ears adapted to getting around after dark, when flying squirrels are most active.

According to Seabloom, flying squirrel sightings aren't a regular occurrence in Grand Forks, but the area definitely holds a population. There are two species of flying squirrel -- northern and southern -- and the northern species in this area is a bit larger than its southern counterpart, Seabloom said.

And yes, he adds, they sometimes end up in places such as the wren house in Urness's yard. The typical litter size is two to six, and Seabloom estimates the squirrel in the wren house probably was born in April.

Slightly smaller than a red squirrel, flying squirrels also are adapted to surviving cold northern winters. They don't hibernate, Seabloom said, but they'll hole up in tree cavities during extreme cold and live on food supplies they've stored. That can be anything from birds' eggs to fungi, he said.

Urness, who hasn't seen the young flying squirrel since the recent encounter -- it's probably flown the coop, so to speak -- said he decided to name the critter "Jessie" in honor of a friend who saw the photo and asked if he'd named it.

I have been using Squirrel SQL to query MySQL 5.7 databases from my Windows 10 laptop. We are now starting to upgrade to MySQL 8, but when I try to connect to a MySQL 8 instance I'm getting the error, "Unexpected Error occurred attempting to open an SQL connection. class java.lang.NullPointerException: null". The stack trace is shown below. I found a similar question about this error that suggested increasing memory allocation, which I did but it didn't help. (Since the squirrel-sql.bat file didn't set -Xmx at all, I added it. Documentation shows that javaw default is 256m so I went up to -Xmx4096m but same error.)

Indiana is home to the southern flying squirrel, one of two North American species, the other aptly named the northern flying squirrel. While the southern species is smaller, it is also the more aggressive of the two, which is why both species rarely coexist.

While neither species technically flies, gliding is the accepted term, southern flying squirrels can travel an impressive distance, Flaherty said. The rule is the squirrel can fly two units for every one vertical unit it climbs, so a climb of ten feet would yield a 20 foot glide. Using their tails they are also able to change direction, sometimes drastically, mid-flight.

The southern flying squirrel nests in trees and survives off nuts, berries and invertebrates. It is uncommon to see a flying squirrel outside of a densely populated forest, Flaherty added. For those hoping to catch a glimpse of the species, she recommended an evening stroll through a wooded area to catch a glimpse of these nocturnal creatures.

Nab a pot luck hair accessory and make a mega saving. I'll choose from my scrap scrunchie stash and send out a surprise. Feel free to add a note to your order to let me know what kinda colours are your thing.
