birds


On our trip I saw seventeen new birds, that includes a Golden Eagle! We also saw a steller's jay. a white faced ibis, a gad wall duck, a American pipit, a pine siskin, a pinon jay, and a mountain bluebird. One of my sunflowers seeds are about harvest-able.

look how big


This is my biggest sunflower. One of my sunflowers crashed in the big rain last night, so we cut the head of and stuck it in a vase. I saw a rare hawk today, a Northern Harrier.

My sunflowers are so big! They are the Russian giant type. Ive had them for 6 months. I sure love them.

woodpecker


My favorite bird is the SAW WHET OWL and the RED BELLIED WOODPECKER. I have never seen a Saw Whet Owl but they are so cute! Here is a picture of a Red Bellied Woodpecker. I had such a hard time attracting one, but one day I got up to My Mom and papa saying that there is a woodpecker at my feeder.

Warbler


A new junior sunflower opened it's head today. A few days ago I saw My first Black And White Warbler. I have two guinea pigs their names are Cc and Timothy. They eat, poop, and pee a lot. We are ( my brother and I ) writing a book called the Black Horn.

I want to write my thoughts on birds and sunflowers - my two favorite things.

This is my favorite Sunflower that is now opening its head. It is Russian Giant.
