Bluebirds are furnishing nest boxes, pussy willows are blooming, and wood and chorus frogs are singing at the ephemeral pond.

¡El excremento de un pájaro es la comida de otro! Los pavos salvajes de Wehr estarán encantados de recoger las semillas perdidas que los pájaros ocupados arrojan al suelo en los comederos. Es todo un espectáculo encontrar cardenales, palomas y gorriones comiendo junto a estos pavos gigantes.
