The Flying squirrel was in the wren house we had up on a tree. When I took the box off to clean it, the animal burst out the opening and fell/glided a bit to the ground, then ran behind a stump; then climbed a tree where I achieved this poor cellphone photo.
Lots of Red Oaks around
Peering out from a Saw-whet Owl nest box
Eating in the bird feeder. Very skittish. Climbed to top of feeder and glided to nearby trees.Likely a northern but couldn’t be certain.
Dead on the path with no sign of injury. Any thoughts on what could have happened?

I think there's enough here to ID to species, but I am far from an expert. Feedback appreciated. Coming to bird feeder.
Cat brought it in unharmed.
Found dead along with several other small rodents on the side of the road.
Numerous squirrels living in the roof of the fire tower
Ran across a sleeping flying squirrel while doing field work. It was in a hollow only about a meter off the ground.
