It has been QUITE awhile since we last posted on our blog together...time to get going on it again! :)
First, since we are studying about animals and their habitats, I wanted to post this amazing video. It is a 'murmuration' - I had never heard of this strange event before, so check it out!
Murmuration - an amazing, HUGE flock of birds flying together...http://www.wimp.com/murmurationphenomena/
Now, here is a poem to consider (also about a bird, and one of my top 10 favourite poems...please tell me what y think!)
The Eagle
Alfred, Lord Tennyson
He clasps the crag with
crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely
lands,
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.
Tell me if you like this poem...or not...and why!

And like a thunderbolt he falls.

I'm looking forward to hearing your ideas!
