Spring: For Real This Time

April 14, 2023 by Sofia Castro-Loza

Today was such a beautifully sunny day that we just HAD to do a lunch forage out on Young’s Hill. The grass is getting so lush and green that when Jamie’s group got access early in the morning, some of them almost skipped breakfast because eating grass was more enticing. When lunch time came, all group members sprinted outside fast and YES, even Neggie went out to grab all the carrots and chow that she could and then went inside to happily nest with her findings. Annie wore a head band around her waist, which we consider to be the official Spring time indicator, and she ate all the forage placed on the treat rock. Farmer Jo feasted inside the green house with as much produce she could possibly carry inside in one trip, and then went out for more! Jamie was very adamant on letting visiting crows know that today’s forage was not up for grabs, and then found all of the peppers that were put out in the forage. Burrito and Missy also enjoyed the forage by wandering all over the hill eating whatever they could find and also climbing almost all the structures on the lower side of the hill. If you ask me, today was the perfect for them and for all the caregivers. Sunshine is just an amazing mood boost for everyone 🙂
