Does it still have vision in the eye with the growth above it? It's hard to tell from the picture. He must be happy to have found your feeders. At the local zoo a few years ago I saw a squirrel that was totally blind. Both eyes must have been done in during a fight and they were all grown over with scar tissue. He looked healthy and got around well so his hearing must have been quite sharp. He hung around the waterbird lagoon living on the seeds that were put out for the birds. Wild animals and birds sometimes do well when their situations seem dire. Poor thing. Does it still have vision in the eye with the growth above it? It’s hard to tell from the picture.
