The area in which I am immersing myself in the woods behind my mom’s house in Centerville Indiana. On either side of the woods is a corn field and in front of the woods is a field that used to be forested and was then deforested for horse riding. The woods are very young and have only been around for 20-30 years. There are significantly more birds here than in Burlington or anywhere else in Vermont. This may be because of all the bird feeders but I am sure the warmer climate has a significant effect. Some trees are starting to bud and it seems as if spring is just around the corner.
