Featured species: Eastern red bat (Lasiurus borealis)

lyrics

Trees are turning warmer colors, sun is setting soon
My season has arrived and it's a perfect afternoon
I'll sleep a little longer as I dangle from an oak
My tail a fuzzy blanket and my wings a cozy cloak

Autumn leaves
Red and orange just like me
On the trees
Gently twisting in the breeze
The leaves and me

Twilight takes a turn before it tumbles into night
And I myself am tumbling into freely flapping flight
The moths I catch are many and I'm feeling gratified
The moon and rusty Mars are shining brightly by my side

Autumn leaves
Red and orange just like me
From the trees
Gently falling in the breeze
The leaves and me

Food and cozy blanket curling help fend off the chill
And in the day, I dream of moths, those dreams I can fulfill
The days are getting colder, but I know I'll be all right
Because I have a place to hide away through winter white

Autumn leaves
Red and orange just like me
Round the trees
Keep me warm till winter leaves
The leaves and me
