Flying Squirrel

While waiting for blackbirds and thrushes to come feeding on a little forest clearing under a medium voltage power line, I noticed a squirrel jumping from one tree to another. It stopped at the edge of the clearing, looked around and made a fantastic flying jump to the top of concrete power pole standing in the middle of the clearing. I wasn’t good enough at SIF (squirrels-in-flight) and managed to get only rear part of the flying squirrel, but I got it on the top of the pole, just before the second flying jump to the other side of the clearing.
