Day 68 - Wed Jan 2: The Killdeer from Day 63 spent some time this morning foraging on the soccer fields once again. They are SO generous to my students!
OK - they're not being generous. They are out there searching desperately for a bit of nourishment and energy to keep them warm in the near freezing temperatures. It' sjust good fortune that they are in close proximity to our class windows. As a matter of fact, I'm sure these birds have no idea we've been watching them.
Regardless, the apparent fruitful foraging grounds of our soccer field have supplied two more of my classes with decent views of our largest Charadrius plovers.
It's always fun getting kids on new birds. They get so excited to see a wild animal in "their" spots = )
