A Nutty Companion

Look up, do you see a nest? Shh don't make too much noise.

You are looking at a grey squirrel nest! Grey and Red squirrels are native to Ontario, they typically eat buds from trees, seeds, wild berries, fruits, and nuts. DISCLAIMER: Do NOT feed the squirrels. Squirrels are generally friendly creatures, but make sure to only admire them from a distance. The squirrels' natural predators in the wild are weasels, coyotes, foxes, and snakes.

This self-guided tour is a project of Mrs. Nye's grade eight class at Moraine Hills Public School.
