Spring is finally here! The buds on the trees are bursting into leaf, and the birds have all come back to the forest. Their singing is like a symphony up in the trees.

All the burrs are sleepily coming out of their huts, and starting to get into mischief again. ESPECIALLY Scurvy Burr. He has already started organizing squirrel rides. This is when a whole bunch of burrs jump on a squirrel's tail, and go for the wildest, craziest ride you've ever seen!

But the squirrels get really mad. One of these days, they are going to find some way to get back at those burrs. That's why I'm always nice to the squirrels.

Next week is our annual tree-planting ceremony. I'll write about that later!
