I went to see getting out from nest of Siberian Flying Squirrel (Pteromys volans) after birding of Mukawa and Yuhutsu. In this day, there were a few bird, so I gave up birding early and switched to watch flying squirrels.
At c.a. 16:45, one individual came out of their hole.
And next one came out!
And next one, next one, and next one.......
In the end, 5 individuals came out from the same nest!
They fed on winter buds on the branch and demonstrated flying between tree and next tree for me.
