Red at nest

Still on reds (sorry), a red squirrel was sitting on and at times leaning against, its downed nest. This nest has been on the ground for a couple of weeks now and the squirrel has a cavity nearby. However, it was really touching to see this little one sitting there, eyes half closed, as if in reverie about his home. After a few minutes, he gave a very visible shake, and took off. When I passed by 40 minutes later, he was back at his downed home.
