zeke, I live in Vermont.  We have our fair share of squirrels around for whatever reason, I've never known oak trees, with their acorns, to be in abundance in the state though, I can't even think of one in my town anywhere.  They tend to keep their leaves in the winter, they turn brown, so they kind of stick out.  We do have a lot of other kinds of nuts in town though!    Surrounding towns have large gray squirrels, the only time I've seen them in this town was when one is flattened in the middle of the road, they make it all the way to town,  see how much snow we've got and throw themselves under a vehicle.  Once in a while you'll see someone driving around with a sticker on their car that says, "Loons, taste just like chicken."  (It's an inside joke meant to p_ss some people off), I've never seen one saying how good a gray squirrel tastes, but it could also explain why there aren't too many of them around.    I usually have a few red squirrels here, but I've noticed bobcat tracks out in the yard, not a good sign for any small animal!   Love those turkeys!  They were back at the neighbors tonight when we went by, so funny.      

Well....we never had turkeys where I live but we do now. In fact there is an area called Turkey Hill which used to be a unique experience but now one may see turkeys anywhere around here. And some are huge. There are lots of squirrels, too, but not like what was described in the poem. No squirrel-NATO. There are the most beautiful black squirrels and their numbers seem to be growing. I have seen redish brown squirrels in the city and white squirrels in Wash, DC.
So do you hear loons often? It's a lovely sound. I heard one once when I was in upstate NY, rowing on a lake. Never saw the loon but we could hear it. Beautiful.
How about mooses? moosi? moosies?  what is the plural of moose? 

I scream if I see an opossum. They're not the cutest things around. I actually saw a turkey spread eagle like a peacock! It was amazing. I was driving down the Saw Mill River Pkwy. They like to hang out right near the edge of the road. Bobcats. Not common around here but there have been sightings. Hell.....there are coyotes in NYC. Climate change and development into "their" areas are forcing animals out of their own communities and into ours.
