Questions and Answers About Wildlife

What do squirrels do when spring arrives?
In spring, squirrels search for buried acorn stashes, fresh tree buds, flower bulbs, and early seeds to replenish their energy after winter.
Why do squirrels have such bushy tails?
A squirrel uses its fluffy tail for balance when climbing branches, as a warm blanket during cold weather, and as a signaling flag to communicate with other squirrels.
When do crocus flowers open their petals?
Crocuses open their petals when exposed to warm sunlight during the day and close them tight at night or during cold rain to protect their pollen.
