Photo
of hole in tree from the Upland Forest habitat: This is one of my
favorite photos of the day because it makes me think of the warm little
houses animals make to keep themselves and their families safe. I wonder
how many different types of animals helped make this hole and how many
lived in. It reminds me of a book I read with my mom called
One
Small Place in a Tree
written by Barbara Brenner and illustrated by Tom Leonard.

Field of Snow

I felt
very calm looking at this field of snow near Starr Library on the
National Day of Service. Snow is so peaceful. If everyone could feel
this peace, maybe we would take better care of each other and the
planet. This is why Field of Snow is one of my favorite photos of the
day.
