Activity 1- The Wall of Birds is truly amazing! I loved exploring it and it was interesting to see what birds live in different areas of the world and also birds of the past. I don't think I could choose a favorite but some of the ones I was interested were the wandering albatross, the ornimegalonyx (prehistoric owl), the European bee-eater, and the tawny frogmouth.
Activity 2- Woodpeckers: There's a pair of northern flickers nesting in my neighbor's back yard which I also see and hear hammering at old trees along my street. Doves and Pigeons: I see mourning doves frequently in my neighborhood- their song is so common but so beautiful. Wading birds: A great blue heron flew over my house today.
Activity 3- I love seeing barred owls, but I have never seen one in my neighborhood, so I'll have to go with eastern bluebirds. They're so lovely and cute and their arrival means that spring has come.
