Plants Provide an Important Source of Food. The plants of the Swamp provide year round food for the wildlife of the Swamp. Even in the cold weather of winter, plant material is a critical food source. Many of the songbirds that stay north in the winter congregate in the Swamp. In the wet meadows and the shrub swamp areas they can find many plants with winter seeds as well as shrubs with berries that remain most of the winter. Wetland shrubs like Black Alder provide seeds. Vines of wild grape and bittersweet provide berries, although the grapes are all usually eaten early in the season.
