Secrets are everywhere in the world outdoors. Quite a lot of people are busy studying them because they are so interesting. All around us are birds, animals, trees and flowers. The facts about how they live and grow are as interesting as anything could be.
Do you know that one of the great presidents of the U.S.A. spent hours and hours studying birds? A businessman who lives near New York City became so interested in insects that he began to collect them. He now has over one thousand different kinds carefully kept in glass boxes.
Come with me, and I will help you find some of nature’s secrets. Let’s go quickly through the woods and fields. Here we shall find how a rabbit tells the other rabbits that there is danger. We shall follow a mother bear and her young ones as they search for food and get ready for their long winter sleep . We shall watch bees dancing in air to let the other bees know where they can find food. I will show you many other interesting things, but the best thing that I can teach you is to keep eyes open when you go out. Nature tells her secrets only to people who look and listen carefully.
