Scientists don’t know everything
Cardinals don’t always pair off, but stay in families year
after year
Woodpeckers don’t just eat bugs off trees, but lots to hang
on the side of feeders, choosing the best the sparrows have to offer
Dogs are faithful, even when abandoned, even until death
Cats create self-sufficient communities, packs roaming
individually in spring and fall, sharing knowledge of food sources, killing
moles and leaving them, eating mice and robins, showing other cats the way,
warning strangers and waiting for them to prove themselves worthy
Landscapes change yearly, strong trees die unexpectedly
without reason, water creates its own paths even though paths have been made
for it through much study, rocks move, trees are stronger than rock, rock is
stronger than dirt, water trumps all
Nothing replaces daily observation
