If not, no worries. You will have another chance next week!
Now, head outside and see what critters you can spot in your neck of the woods! Winter is a great time of year to spot wildlife. Join the Wildobs community and share your wild adventures with the world.
There’s so much wonder waiting for you when you step outside your door. Take the time to look up — and down — and reconnect with the natural world.
It’s the dreaming season, the season to imagine a spring, summer and fall full of nature, gardening, exploring, playing outdoors, and getting grass stains.
For nature’s critters winter is a time for survival, but for us it’s the season of imagination, hope, creativity, and planning. A time to regroup, clear away the old, and bring in the new; a time to gain new knowledge to take out into the woods, fields, and open spaces of our gardens, neighborhoods, and communities.
So, what are you learning and planning? How about:
designing a garden bed of herbs and edible flowers
learning about vegetable gardening and ordering seeds
choosing a few native shrubs to attract and feed wild birds in your garden
picking a composting method to use when spring comes
finding an outdoor-friendly preschool or summer camp for your children
planning an outdoor nature group for kids
researching a camping trip for your family vacation
The dreaming season is a wonderful time. It doesn’t matter what you are planning, just be sure to get dreaming about what you’ll do outdoors. Make a plan to do it!
