Explore your neighborhood looking for evidence of animal homes. Walk around the block or visit a park or schoolyard, looking up into trees and down at the ground. If you spot an animal, stop and quietly watch to see where it goes and what it does. Anthills in sidewalk cracks, for example, are a sign of a larger colony of ants below. Squirrels build large nests in trees, and chipmunks live in underground burrows, with tell-tale entrance holes in many lawns.
