Baby Squirrel was my roommate for some days :-)

During my engineering i used to stay in hostel.It was starting of third year(5th sem) of my engineering.I shifted to new room .We were three girls staying in a room and the new room was in the corner of the building.Room was quite comfortable,spacious with good light and wind .There were two windows in the room.usually other rooms has only one window and as i was shifting with my senior i got space in this room .One of my roomy was architect student full time with trace sheets and some models,draft sheet.

She had dumped all her sheets in the top rack mostly its place where all the unused books were placed.Myself and other roomy were new to this room.Architect roomy was staying in this room from long time.So had dumped all her previous year's sheet into the top rack.We shifted into the room.One of the window had small opening where my seniors had put plastic sheet to cover that gap.Every night we used to hear some sound and even my architect roomy had heard that sound in the day time.

we forgot about it assuming that sound was from outside.Later one day my roomy saw a squirrel entering to our room through that small opening from the window.She got scared and even the squirrel after seeing her.Later squirrel left our room.we were scared but we thought something is there in our room so its coming to our room.We started looking into the top rack.Because of lots of architectz sheet.we could not find anything.We started removing one by one.Later we saw a small nest which had two cute baby squirrel...they were so small and cute..they started making some sound...mom squirrel had found our room for those baby squirrel to keep it safe and warm!!!later we kept the nest near window.We touched those squirrels and we felt really good that touch it was very soft.Especially those three stripes which relates Ramayana.Some one said its good luck if we touch those three stripes.We never realized how scared those baby squirrel were and also we have almost spoiled the nest keeping it outside...
After sometime MOM squirrel came through the same opening from the window took one squirrel on its back and went...later it took one more and left the room.Nest was still near the window .we were not aware how long it would have taken to weave the nest.It was very complex and beautiful nest...May be its very difficult for architect students to design and to put it on the trace sheet,or to make a model with all the cardboards.I love that room...will never forget those cute baby squirrel...still have the picture of those cute baby squirrels in my mind and mom squirrel carrying on its back..All mom are the same they always look for there kids safety and ll do anything fro their kids.
