    Yep, got me half a squirrel tail in a Sassafrass once.
    If I know they're in there I'll usually just let them have the tree. Critters gotta live somewhere.

    Cut a Sassafras tree down once that had been top by a snow storm. It had a large what looked like a woodpecker hole up top as I was cutting I kept hearing what sounded like the kids next door playing. As the tree came down there was a very load screeching sound and as it hit the ground a small screech owl popped straight up out of the hole about 20'. Scared the crap out of me and him he flew over to a near by tree and gave me heck as I finished bucking up his home.
