Bird+Watching

**This week students will be spending more time looking at birds in the school playground. **
==**The weather on Monday was cloudy. **2B **saw some Noisy Miner birds, plenty of pigeons and some cheeky Rainbow Lorikeets! The class was unlucky as we didn't have our new cameras (with video) until Tuesday. **== ==**Even though it was raining on Tuesday **2R **were the first to spot a Magpie Lark (Peewee) in our playground! We actually took this video from the lab window! The Magpie Lark is the black and white bird and the two Noisy Miner birds are swooping it! 2R also saw some pigeons and Rainbow Lorikeets. **==
