If you pm me your location, I can find you a rehabber that will have everything the baby needs! I think that is the best bet for this little tyke.

Yes we have look around the trees and did not found any more babies but I have no way of getting to the nest there are alot of them around us and they are too high for us to reach .

Keep checking around the area for up to a week. If there are any more babies left in the nest, they will wait until they are STARVING to come out. That is why baby squirrels are often so dehydrated and scrawny when we get them. They have gone days without eating and finally come out in search of food.
