While walking through the forest, I came upon a tree hollow that appeared to have something inside.
I took a closer look and first saw that Pteromys volans orii droppings were scattered about.
Then, when I peered inside, I found a honeycomb.
It was in the center of the hollow. When I studied it more closely, I saw that a beehive had been at the top of the hollow and its remains had fallen down.
Although the hollow was not a Pteromys volans orii nest, it did appear to be used by squirrels as a resting place.
