Flying squirrels eat nuts; seeds; winter bud from Hemlock trees, fruits berries and fungi. But, as omnivores, they also feed on moths, beetles, spiders, birds and their eggs, small mice, and shrews. Owls and house cats are major predators and foxes, coyotes, weasels, skunks, raccoons, and black rat snakes also take them. ................
