 The serenading song of birds and the translucent green glow of freshly
unfurled leaves signals the arrival of spring in Minnesota. If you’re
lucky, you can add the thunder of waterfalls, too. As winter loosens its
grip, snowmelt fills the state’s rivers that roar toward Lake Superior,
rumble through hardwoods and cascade across prairie.

 Walleye may be Minnesota’s state fish, but it’s hard to find a fisherman
who would complain about having a largemouth or smallmouth bass hit
their bait or lure. Both species tend to be willing biters and put up a
valiant, tackle-testing fight.

 Spring is an exciting time in Minnesota. The weather warms up, the
waterways open, and the flowers and trees start to bloom. It’s also a
busy time for zoos in Minnesota as they reopen outdoor areas, welcome
baby animals and hold special events to kick off the new season.
