Today we Skyped about birds. The first bird was a Ruby Crowned Kinglet because it had a red cap on its’ head. It only weighs as much as a loonie, that is seven grams. Another type of bird was the Fox Sparrow. It was very fuzzy like a fox. The bottom of the Fox Sparrow is white and the body is brown. The Saw-Whet Owl is all brown with white spots, tiny white cat like face and the owl can turn its head all the way around. The owls face looks like a heart. The Yellow Rumped Warbler has a yellow dot on its back and loves berries. The biologists said the birds need bracelets, which is a band to help track them in the wild. The biologists use a machine and then they turn the bird upside down and then they can weigh the bird. They also told us what the birds were called. My favourite part was when they let the birds go. My favourite bird was the Ruby Crowned Kinglet because they have a red crown on their head.
Nice work, Peter! You explained what the birds looked like and what they ate. Continue working on adding more detail and descriptive language to your writing. This a goal for you on your next writing project. I thought it was funny that they weigh the birds upside down, so they do not fly away! I liked when the released the birds as well. Keep working hard, Peter! 🙂
Dear Peter,
Great post Peter, that must have been a lot of fun. I just have a question. Do you like the school lunches at your school? If so, whats your favorite lunch?
