Pictures from Tristate Bird Rescue

This is one of the places they keep the baby birds. They go in here after they are big enough to come out of the incubator, but not yet flying. Our own little baby nestling (AKA Park) has this same pac-n-play ;-)



Telling me how banding works



Explaining about rescuing birds after an oil spill

field trip 1

we went to Tri-state Bird Rescue for a
open house. We got to see what they feed the birds,where they put the babys,where they band & weigh the birds, where they give the birds baths, and we got to see the empty cages. the cages were empty because they move the birds for the open house.they don't want them disturbed, we got to see the live eagle cam of a baby bald eagle. we had a lot of fun. i hope someday i can volunteer there.

we've been busy

Since I last blogged, we went on vacation, took lots of field trips and have done all sorts of things. I hope I can write lots of entries soon to tell you about it all. For now, mom says I can only do one entry to tell you about one of the field trips. I will give it its own entry in a minute.

A big surprise!

Last Saturday I got two pet birds. Their names are Henry & Hannah. they are zebra finches. It was a big surprise! Daddy went and got them from a nice lady an hour or so away. Here are some pictures.

our family walk

We went to Killens Pond State Park last night to go for a walk. they were closed so we turned around. We saw 2 deer getting ready to cross the road so we sat and watched them and 1 looked at us like "go on move so i can get back across". Then we went to the school & walked the the bike trail that goes from the school around the edge of Killen's Pond State Park. We had 2 races & Trumpeter won both of them. Nestling rode in mamabirds sling & screech rode in papabirds sling. we had lots of fun
