STILL WAITING FOR SPRING AT THE APPLEWOOD STUDIO

Ground hogs are scarce at the Applewood Studio, so we have employed a variety of small animals to tell us when Spring will arrive.  Meet our expert panel...

                                                        "Only yellow snow 'round here, Dummy!"
                                                         One spotted donkey's opinion.
                                                     
                                                                             " Duh."
                                                       Aren't German Shepherds supposed to
                                                       be the geniuses of the canine world?  
                     We probably shouldn't have bothered to ask him.
                                                         "Feed me.  I will say anything you want."
                                                                       A typical raven.
"I'm an Albuquerque turkey, 
so what do I know?" 

WAITING FOR SPRING AT THE APPLEWOOD STUDIO

DATELINE:  NEW MEXICO, THE APPLEWOOD STUDIO
Ground hogs are scarce at Applewood Studio, so we have employed a variety of small animals to tell us when Spring will arrive.  Meet our expert panel...
                                                                  "Getting deeper."
 This tortoise actually lives up in Colorado at the Gator Farm-- we call him on the phone for snow reports. He lives in a a geothermal enclosure most of the time.  By the time he makes his way to his front door, it will be Spring.
                                "Bah! Who cares about snow?  Don't ask us hard questions!"
These emus are fr-enemies of the tortoise, hoping to gain a little publicity.  They are also avid follows of the Kardashians and the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills".  They don't care about nature.  It is worth noting that emus are characterized by their vicious temperaments.

                                                     "Hey, if it isn't duck hunting season, I'm happy."
   We could not get a reliable prediction from this resident Mallard.

                                                           "Yes, yes, more snow is coming."
We didn't actually ask this nosy cat his opinion, but he says the he is sure that more snow is on the way.

 This psycho laser-eye bunny was in attack mode-- we didn't hang around to ask questions. 
                                                                 "Poo on Winter!"  
What else would you expect a Herring Gull to say?

                                                              "Me no speak English."
FYI--We are pretty sure this horse is the Mr Ed.  He is trying to be incognito these days.
