People say that nothing goes waste in a forest. Can you explain, how?
Visit a forest. Here is a list of points that would make your visit more fruitful.
- Make sure that you have permission to go into the forest.
- Make sure that you can find your way around. Get a map and go along with someone who is familiar with the area.
- Keep a record of the things you see and do. Observations make the visit interesting. Sketches and photographs are useful.
- You may record bird calls.
- Collect different kinds of seeds or hard fruits like nuts.
- Try to recognise various types of trees, shrubs, herbs, etc. Make lists of plants from different places in the forest and of different layers. You may not be able to name all the plants, but it is worth recording and seeing where they grow. Make a record of approximate heights of plants, crown shape, bark texture, leaf size, and flower colour.
- Learn to recognise the animal’s droppings.
- Interview the forest officials and the people of surrounding villages and other visitors.
You must never collect birds’ eggs, and their nests should never be disturbed.
