flag In Minnesota, squirrel dreys are responsible for big leaf balls in trees.

flag Big leaf balls in Minnesota trees aren't hawk nests; they're actually formed by squirrels. flag Squirrels collect leaves and twigs to create insulated nests called "dreys." flag The misconception arises because some squirrel dreys resemble the nests of raptors like hawks. flag Red-tailed hawks, a common Minnesota bird, also construct nests in trees, which can be confused with squirrel dreys.
