One of the nice things the contractor did while up on the roof was to clean out our gutters, which are normally choked with pine needles. This must have surprised the squirrels, because one just fell all the way down the drain pipe from the second story. (It sounded like the roof was coming off.) It's at the bottom now (with tail hanging out) but apparently thinks it has to climb up instead of just climbing out the hole at the bottom. Hopefully it will figure it out soon.
