Act III

The Animals

Nature’s Theater includes fauna as well as flora. Some garden animals are wild, like the insects, spiders, reptiles, birds, and mammals that are indigenous to our area, while some, like chickens and goats, are domesticated. Some have a beneficial role to play, like the honeybees that pollinate our crops. Some are thieves, like the birds that eat our berries and the raccoons that eat our sweet corn. But all have a valuable role to play in the grand interplay of life that is Nature’s Theater.
