Visit #3 to our BioCube (3/3/2021)

A great visit to our BioCube today! It did get muddier as the day went on :)

The birds were very active near our BioCube, but we were unable to identify any through photo or song. We will try to learn some bird songs and hopefully ID some birds on our next visit.
