So do we salute them for being patriotic, or do they end up as squirrel stew for lunch for destroying the flag's? <img src=newicons/anim_lol.gif border=0 align=middle> Cemetery's Flags Found in Squirrel Nest EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (AP) -- Groundskeepers at Forest Hill Cemetery thought it was kids who were stealing dozens of American flags. That is, until one found a giant squirrel's nest. "I was mowing, looked up out into the distance, and something caught my eye," said Dave Ender, a groundskeeper employed by the Eau Claire Parks and Recreation Department. He drove his riding lawnmower to a nearby street intersection and looked up a tree. "Low and behold, I found the missing flags," Ender said. They were ripped and serving as the foundation of a giant squirrel nest. "I never seen anything like that before," he said. No one at the cemetery had ever seen a squirrel with a flag in its mouth, either. "They must have done it at night, or very early in the morning," Ender said. "Those little rascals, they're just amazing," he said. http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/P/PATRIOTIC_SQUIRREL?SITE=NVLAS&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT "If breathing wasn't a natural act, you would have been dead along time ago"!

Saw a short news clip on this story this evening. From what it looked like these werent no small flags! The nest looked to be about 5 feet tall and atleast that wide from what I saw! Flags appeared to be moderate sized, not the usual little flags on a stick you push in the ground. The cemetary has apparently decided to leave the flag nest as is.
