What Critters are Around you Introduction
In this section, we will figure out what is in our area and around us. There are many critters living under us, flying around us, and making their homes in our backyard. It's up to us to be observant and to notice what is right under our nose. How do we know what is here? Animals leave clues for us to find and it's just to us to read them and figure out what the animals are saying to us. Let's go investigate.
