A predatory songbird that feeds on small birds, mammals, and insects, the northern shrike is known for its unusual habit of impaling its prey on thorns or barbed wire to save for later. Naturalist Sarah Gladu, of Damariscotta River Association, will be leading a walk on Saturday, Dec. 1 from 1-2:30 p.m. in hopes of spotting northern shrike, which often visit the area this time of year after breeding in taiga and tundra farther north.
