Acres of open fields and meadows now planted with saplings and strewn with decaying logs – a worthwhile restoration project to re-establish former bogs.

“Yes, you can!” said the heron, “look down to see the wonders by the roadside.” “Yes, you can!” said the other heron, just look up and see how fires and floods have always reshaped the land.” ” You can’t even get your stories straight…”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yes, you can!” said the Kestrel, just sit and enjoy the warmth of the sun.” “I’m here to take a walk, now among these skeletal sights.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yes, you can!” said the nuthatch, knock on wood.” “I agree,” said the pileated. ” “See, you have doubts as well….”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yes, you can!” said the geese, too noisy to be understood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yes, you can!” said the turtles, “just slow down and be.” “Yes, you can!” said the harrier hawk, “just speed up and soar.” “I’m not a rollercoaster! Although I life sure feels like it.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
