(Morph the Dwarf in winter)
We are finally into our rainy season and boy do we need it. This is when all the native flora turns green and starts to bud out. I read in the paper this weekend about not trimming trees after Feb. 1 because of the earlier and prolonged nest-building habits of our native birds, particularly hummingbirds who position their tiny nests at the very end of branches. As we Claremonters know (in the land of trees and PHDs), we have many prune-happy tree trimming companies around our town that don't really know how, when, or what to trim when it comes to our beautiful shade-giving, sound-muffling, oxygen-producing trees.
