Their faces are handsome, their eyes are bright, their bodies are vigorous, their limbs are light, and they are very agile and alert. Delicate little face, lined with a hat-a beautiful tassel tail, looks particularly beautiful; The tail always sticks up to the top of the head, and the body hides under the tail to enjoy the cool. They often sit upright, like people, with their hands and their front paws to send food to their mouths. It can be said that squirrels are the least like quadrupeds.

Squirrels don't hide underground. They often move high, live in trees like birds, run around in the Woods and jump from tree to tree. They build nests in trees, pick fruits and drink dew. Only when trees are blown too hard by the wind can they fall to the ground. Squirrels can't be found in the fields and plains. They never go near people's houses or stay in small bushes. They only like big Woods and live in tall trees. On a mysterious summer night, squirrels can be heard jumping and screaming in the trees, chasing each other. They seem to be afraid of strong sunlight. They hide in their nests during the day and come out at night to practice running, playing and eating. Although they catch birds, they are not carnivores. They often eat almonds, hazelnuts, beeches and oak chestnuts.

Squirrels are afraid of getting into the water. Some people say that when a squirrel crosses the water, it uses a piece of bark as a boat and its tail as a sail and rudder. Squirrels don't hibernate in winter like mountain rat. They are very alert. As long as someone touches the roots a little, they will run out of the nest, hide under the branches, or escape to other trees. Squirrels run and jump very briskly, always jumping forward, and sometimes even jumping. Their claws were so sharp and their movements were so agile that they climbed a very smooth tree in an instant.
