Where the heck are the squirrels

[Borngeechee]

I'm in the Cranberry Mountain WMA and I can't find a single one. There are tons of oak trees, acorns are everywhere but not one squirrel.

They NEVER fail to show up during deer season !

In my area they have been hammering the hickories..I have been out three times and have shot 17 squirrels...

 

They will be feeding in the oaks also, especially in areas where there are no hickories or pignuts..

 

Keep in mind that in years when there is a heavy acorn crop the squirrels tend to be spread out more, because there is food everywhere...

 

They also tend to feed quite quietly in the tops of the oaks , unlike the frantic running and jumping from limb to limb that they do when feeding in hickories...Hunt very slowly, and be alert for subtle noises that might be made from squirrels moving in the treetops and cutting nuts...

 

It will get easier after the leaves start to drop and most of the nuts are on the ground..Lots more action on the ground then, with squirrels running around gathering fallen nuts..

I've seen them eating beech nuts this early in the season. Acorns are mostly ignored until later on.

Come sit in a lawn chair next to my shed and chicken coop. I shoot 2-5 every day!! I'm not really trying to hunt them either. I come outside to go to work and I have 4-5 of them trying to eat my chickens feed from their feeder or the corn I toss out for the chickens in their enclosed run. I use a Gamo air rifle and take at least 2 a day. There is just a ton of them around me this year.

They are strictly in the tree tops here...Not one  hickory or pig nut has made it and they have husked them and are stuffing them every where...I found one jammed into the crook of a branch I was cutting yesterday...My poor hazel nuts don't stand a chance....

I watch squirrels run up and down the deer's back. Squirrels are heavy into gathering hickory, beech, walnut, and acorn nuts. 

 

Heavy crop of acorns on the same trees, two years in a row now. Five to eight in a bunch. Rare occurance.

All over my yard , our Beagle is going nuts, same as every year at this time !

[WNYBuckHunter]

Never fails

The squirrels from hell.They are eating my nuts! Ate 2 last night for dinner. I'm hunting them from the patio.

[Jason118]

I deliver in Mendon/Pittsford. They have jet black squirrels out there running around for several years now

[Carbonelement]

forget the acorns find a hickory tree

[Curmudgeon]

Yeah. Find a hickory tree. I can no longer shoot them because the sheep are behind the hickory tree for a couple of days.

 I can imagine! Having that happen I would think trying to walk in the woods to hunt them would be painful!

I'm famous for confusing people. The squirrels ate my nuts and then the squirrels got eaten. Payback.

the use of "their" incorrectly really changes the meaning of your post haha.
