Wildlife Wednesday - Labor DaY
By Andy Ames
For us humans, Labor Day marks the end of summer - a time to play or cram in as much summer as possible before the cold sets in. In the animal world, rather than a day on the calendar, they rely on the sun. Diminishing daylight tells them that the seasons are changing and it is time to get serious about preparing for season ahead. For some that means taking advantage of the bounty of fruit and seeds. For others it’s time to get down to the business of creating the next generation.
