Flying squirrels can easily forage for food in the night, given their highly developed sense of smell. They harvest fruits, nuts, fungi, and birds' eggs.<ref name=squirrel/><ref>{{cite journal |last=North |first=M. |author2=Trappe, J. |author3=Franklin, J. |year=1995 |title=Standing crop and animal consumption of fungal sporocarps in Pacific Northwest forests |journal=Ecology |volume=78 |issue=5 |pages=1543–1554 |url=http://www.plantsciences.ucdavis.edu/affiliates/north/Publications/Standing%20crop%20and%20animal%20consumption%20of%20fungal.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100610103643/http://www.plantsciences.ucdavis.edu/affiliates/north/Publications/Standing%20crop%20and%20animal%20consumption%20of%20fungal.pdf |url-status=dead |archive-date=2010-06-10 |access-date=2009-07-14 |doi=10.1890/0012-9658(1997)078[1543:SCAACO]2.0.CO;2 |s2cid=86779270 }}</ref><ref name=siberian/> Many gliders have specialized diets and there is evidence to believe that gliders may be able to take advantage of scattered protein deficient food.<ref name="Byrnes 2011 991–1001">{{cite journal|last=Byrnes|first=G.|author2=A.J.
