Squirrels build nests, called dreys, by collecting twigs, leaves, fur, feather or anything in nature to help keep in warm and putting it all together much like a bird does. They are usually found high in the tree on a very strong branch. Another nest, called a den, is the hollowed out part of a tree trunk.
