"What do trees, Amelia, Higgins-Eye Pearly Mussels and Bluebirds all have in common? They’re all on this week’s show! That’s right, first Jake shows us how to climb trees with the best, and how the pros save trees in trouble! Then, Amelia makes a backyard habitat your neighborhood critters will love! Then—we’ll explore some cool efforts to restore the endangered Higgins' Eye Pearly Mussel. It’s a real gem!"
