Published
Just like us, animals have daily tasks and responsibilities. When you're out enjoying nature today, you might notice a squirrel scurrying to gather food or a rabbit carefully constructing a cozy burrow.
Animals might seem busy, but they always take time to rest — and that's something we humans can do better.
As you step outside for your walk, keep a watchful eye for the bustling activities of nature. You might notice any of these common springtime animals:

Animals might seem busy, but they always take time to rest — and that's something we humans can do better.
As you step outside for your walk, keep a watchful eye for the bustling activities of nature. You might notice any of these common springtime animals:
- Birds (such as robins, sparrows, blue jays, and cardinals)
- Chipmunks
- Deer
- Groundhogs
- Rabbits
- Raccoons
- Squirrels
Your Action for Today
Take a moment to appreciate Mother Nature’s busy workers during your walk:
- Take an outdoor stroll, even just around the block during your lunch break.
- As you walk, look for signs of wildlife going about their daily routines.
- Notice the intricate movements and behaviors of the animals you see. For example, if you spot a squirrel or a rabbit, watch it for a while and think about what it's accomplishing.
- Reflect on parallels between the animals' activities and your responsibilities as a nurse. For example, the animals bustle around for much of the day, just like you during a shift. But they eventually slow down to rest (and so should you).
