Thanks Tracy for sharing this lovely photo of the nest outside Elan’s front door!

This week we have been learning about birds.
At the moment, the BC SPCA is asking bird lovers across BC not to hang bird feeders out as there is a salmonella outbreak which is making some birds very sick. So we learned how to make some natural bird feeders which can be left out.
Here is Elan with the bird feeder she made on Tuesday.
And here is the feeder I made hanging in the garden at Canuck Place.
We also had a visit with Mike from Mike’s Critters who shared two of his birds, Mo and Sammy, with us. They are both quite playful and Sammy was very excited when Hazel and Lumina’s dog, Mila, joined them on screen.
