<p style="text-align: left;">Activity 1: Look for two birds you can tell apart by shape.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Northern Cardinal.
American Robin.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Activity 2: Look for three different birds that have the same colour but on different parts of their body. Red.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Back of the head. Male Downy Woodpecker.
Complete body. Male Northern Cardinal.
Chevron shaped red feathers on the nape of the neck. Northern Flicker.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Activity 3: Searching for food.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Chickadee. Takes a seed from the feeder then flies into the burning bush or forsythia to eat it completely before returning to the feeder for another seed.
White-breasted Nuthatch. Comes to the feeder, takes a seed and flies over to the white oak or the red oak to store it or eat it.
White-throated Sparrow forages under the feeder and double scratches through the seeds on the ground. It never flies up to perch and eat on the feeder.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Activity 4: Describe your favourite bird.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The Northern Cardinal is too easy to identify, but it is a favourite to watch, especially when the male feeds the female. So I will describe a bird I found on a walk in the park that I had never seen before.The park is located on the shore of a lake. It was late in the day, about 5:30 and the sun was going down so the light wasn’t the best. A bird flew into a tree ahead. It had a long tail, a long pointy bill, 2 wing bars and some white patches on its wing. It was about the size of a Robin, but more slender in build. It did not sing. I took photographs of it in the waning light. I found it in my guide book. A Northern Mockingbird.</p>
