More bird-study today! Munchkin & I are a bit under the weather today so we tried to have a good science day through it all...she's on preschool vacation this week--good timing actually!Today, the girls did beautiful tracings and sketches of their favorite birds--ones we saw in our yard. They also began "sculpey clay" sculptures of their 
favorite birds. Cupcake is making a woodpecker and Sweet Pea is creating a black-capped chickadee. Both birds are spending the night in a baking dish, to be finished tomorrow perhaps.

Our Zoology reading today was focused on migration, so we had a good chuckle discussing how some people we know are migratory too! Their grandparents are "Snowbirds" so after making a map of a migratory bird of
their choice (loons & swans), we made a map of our favorite snowbirds' path! We'll mail it so they know how to get back in the spring...Sweet Pea thought this was hilarious.
