What should be done with your chosen evergreen, now that moment of glory is over? Although many of us haul symboltt peace to the curb, awaibng the local dump, an increasing number num-ber of famiiis are returning return-ing them to locations where wildlife can benefit from them.; "JJ Dean M'c'nell, Northern f011 Information and Education;. Specialist from the Division ' of Wildlife Resources, reports that Chnstmas trees can benefit wildlife for up1 to two more years, depending on what is done with it. He explained how animals ani-mals benefit from evergreen trees. "Song birds and quail use coniferous trees to roost in at night where warm air becomes trapped in the dense branches," he said. "Blue grouse spend the win ter Pntirrr i-Jl- ccuies irom certain cer-tain fir trees. Deer, elk snowshoe hares, and numerous other wildlife use conifers as hiding cover to conceal themselves from predators and to get out of the elements." Although many animals can benefit from discarded Christmas trees, throwing it out along the highway doesn't benefit wildlife and creates an eyesore for everyone. How can we better bet-ter use it for wildlife? Mitchell made a few suggestions: sugges-tions: Wildlife Christmas Tree - It can be quite fun and easy to set up a tree for wildlife, according to Mitchell, "This can be done by placing the tree in the yard, or on a patio if you don't have a yard, in front of a window where you can see it.

You will enjoy countless hours watching birds come to your "bird Christmas tree" through the rest of the winter." win-ter." Wildlife Motel - Mitchell discussed how wildlife can benefit from the cover, "If you live in a neighborhood where there are no trees yet, your old Christmas tree can be used to provide cover for birds. "Simply drive the base of your tree into a snowbank and leave it for the birds to use. If you have a clothes line, you can collect trees from your neighbors and lean many trees against the clothes line to create a "lean-to" for lots of birds to get out of the weather. If you have existing trees, merely string some ropes between two trees to lean the Christmas trees on." Fish Habitat - Submerged Sub-merged trees can make excellent habitat for fish and aquatic wildlife, such as frogs, according to Mitchell. "If you have a pond or stream on your property, you may want to collect a few more Christmas trees, tie them together and anchor them in the pond or stream with large rocks to offer fish, amphibians, and aquatic insects a place to live," he said. He continued, "To keep a stream, creek, or river from cutting into a bank, Christmas Christ-mas trees can be used to create a diversion against the force of water. Pools will form behind the Christmas trees which are ideal for fish to rest in." Brush piles - Brush piles are extensions of the "motels" for wintering birds. Mitchell described how brush piles can provide cover for other wildlife, "They provide escape cover, nesting sites and denning areas for ground squirrels, cottontail rabbits, weasels, skunks, snakes and red foxes. Brush piles can be located locat-ed on larger backyard lots or scattered throughout woodlands, meadows, or farm areas. Since they do attract skunks and snakes, you may not want them too near your house. Brush piles need to be at least five feet in height and 12 to 15 feet in diameter to be useful for most wildlife." Trees collected from the neighborhood will help to create a respectable brush pile. Mitchell described the process, "Brush piles can be created by laying rows of Christmas trees perpendicular perpendi-cular and on top of each other. Big brush piles should be started with a foundation of large rocks, stumps or logs to keep them from decomposing decom-posing too quickly. Several heavy logs can also be placed on top of the brush pile to keep it from blowing away. Old sections of culvert, cul-vert, drain tiles or hollow logs placed in the foundation founda-tion provide ideal denning sites." He continued, "You can keep your brush pile going by stacking tree branches that have been trimmed onto the pile later in the year as you clean up the yard. If you don't like the looks of your brush pile, simply plant a hedge of roses or raspberries around it to make it attractive." Mitchell concluded, "By planning now, and thinking ahead, you can extend your enjoyment of that expensive Christmas tree throughout the year." Gray card of thanks We, the family of Blaine D.
