bees dance
on the fairy duster.
springtime pollinators


oh, the magic of bees!

     Don't you love the name for this plant? Quick time yourself for a moment.  How many flowering plants can you name in a minute?
On my walk this morning
I saw belted Galloway cows,
a donkey, pygmy goats, 
a red tailed hawk,
a Great Blue Heron,
two gold finch
a cardinal female
a squirrel
a robin,
a mockingbird,
a brown sparrow,
Then later in the day 
I saw a huge black turkey vulture.
I'd say it was a pretty good day.


    Can you make a list of all the animals you see today?  Or if you'd rather you could make a list of all the plants you see today.  Use this data to write your own list poem.  Have a great day.
