Blue harrons

We started a bird count.  You have to count the birds and how many you see and it is super fun.  The scientists sent us this video.  You can watch it.  Poppy and Pop will love the herons.   If you look very, very closely when the Mama Heron is around the babies, she'll cough up some food.  It's called regurgitate, but I call it cough it up.

Me, Sissy and Daddy were reading Indian in the Cupboard on the green couch.

 Me and Grandma and Carnie were in the computer room playing a video game.  Then Mama came in and said, "Pop wants to show you something."  Me and Sissy and Grandma came out and Pop had a hummingbird in his hand.  It was a young hummingbird that me and Sissy and Grandma petted on the head and neck.  Pop handed the hummingbird to Carnie and Carnie held it in her hand and Carnie opened her whole hand up and the hummingbird stayed there.  I petted the hummingbird on the wings and it shot off like an arrow.  We were getting ready to leave because we were late to go to Lake Glendale to play with our friends.  Then I said, "I want to hold a hummingbird like Carnie did."  And Grandma Rita said, "Look!  A hummingbird in the barn."  I said, "Mama, can we please stay to see it while Pop catches it?"  And Mama said yes.  Pop caught it and when he put the net down, his beak was stuck in it and his little foot.  He gently took his little foot out and his little beak and gave it to me.  It was an adult and it was more scared and it took off faster than the younger one.  The hummingbird felt greasy and slick and it was super soft. 

I found this spider on mama's bush.  I wish I knew what kind of spider he was.  He's so cool.  He stayed in the middle ever since we found him and he made a cool zigzag design in the middle of it.  And he's still there.  

We took a picture of this goldfinch in our backyard.  If you look closely, you can see her.  Earlier she was eating seeds.  She just flew off after we took the picture.  We think she blends in with the sunflowers because she looks like it.
