Birds

We saw and heard many different birds in the beautiful 70 degree weather.
Such as:


  • Tree swallows

  • Hummingbirds

  • Ovenbirds

  • Bluejays

  • American Robin

  • Gray Catbird

Springtime

The tall grass, whistling in the wind.

The crystal-like water, glowing in the river.

The soft clouds, glistening in the sunlight.

The dainty flowers swaying with the breeze.

The evergreen trees cascading down the hills.


Poem by Maia, Nicole, and Bailey.


Plants in Bloom

The shad bush is now in bloom with white flowers. The bush is also called the service berry because in the winter they couldn't bury people. They buried them when the shad bush was in bloom using the flowers on the graves.
