Travel along the trail to read the tale about a Qwiwilh the wood duck and Q’uleeq’e’ the crow. Qwiwilh the wood duck is preparing to nest in his favorite tree when Q’uleeq’e’ the crow invites him to play in the tall branches. They jump higher and higher, until the branches break and the birds come crashing down into the stream below. Qwiwilh’s nesting spot is gone. Can Q’uleeq’e’ make things right for her new friend?
