When you have a squirrel on the trunk of the tree, it will always scurry around to the side opposite you. This is my favorite situation.
Pick up a rock or stick from the ground, toss it around the otherside (where the squirrel is hiding) and he'll run around to your side where you can get a nice shot. Toss the rock/stick high if possible so you have time to shoulder your shotgun, ready for the squirrel to appear.
Good luck.
