We took a day off to go on an expedition in remote forests to see how winter was treating nature. We found no mammals but a few birds. There was nearly no snow in sight, although the lake was still covered with ice, not thick enough to walk on.

Findings

• One piece of birch bark that we found lying on the ground. No bark was missing on the surrounding birches, so we guess the bark must have been carried there. We took the bark home to the Nature Lab. Hopefully, we can make something beautiful out of it.
