The Black Bear - we have several around here in our woods. They hibernate for up to 100 days!
The Box Turtle - again, very common in my part of the country. They hibernate from 77-154 days!

The Common PoorWill. Did you know that this bird sleeps the winter away? They will hibernate under a rock or a log for up to 100 days! I really like this little bird.
And, finally, since I have have not been here since Fall, I too have hibernated for over 100 days! The difference is that I have gone to work, taken care of my family, and spent many days under the weather.
I am glad that spring is here!
Welcome back! I am happy to see spring as well.
ReplyDeleteI never heard of the Common Poorwill. Never heard of a hibernating bird for that matter What part of the state do they live in? And amen to Spring showing up...seems to be slow in coming.
