Critters and Beasties of Moberly Lake
An informal naturalist note from Moberly Lake describes winter wildlife behavior. Chickadees feed quickly while chattering, pine grosbeaks and redpolls forage near feeders, evening grosbeaks crowd feeders, and blue jays remain boisterous. A rare northern flying squirrel visits a feeder at night, with an anecdote about a helicopter spotlight revealing startled gliding squirrels. The piece details gliding flight as predator escape and the squirrels’ arboreal routes.
