Currently the code is using a Grove ultrasonic range sensor to detect distance in centimeters. It sends that value as moistureLevel. We need to update this to actually use a moisture sensor and send actual moisture levels to Mother Bird.
[ ] In Baby Bird, remove references/code related to the ultrasonic range sensor and replace with references/code to communicate with the Adafruit Sensor
[ ] Return the true moisture level in the payload to Mother Bird
