THE WEEK IN PHOTOS (3/4/12-3/10/12)
A child insert a spile into a tree stump which in a living tree would then drain the sap, during the Maple Syrup Festival, at the Indian Creek Nature Center, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Sunday, March 4, 2012. Families gathered to learn how to identify a maple tree, how to tap the tree, as well as how to boil the sap into syrup. Families were also invited to enjoy a pancake breakfast with their home made maple syrup. Indian Creek has gathered around 600 gallons of sap this season, despite the unseasonable temperatures.
