Canada Goose

Brunswick, ME
Grade 4


As I fly from the south in a V,
I see kids looking at me.
I fly to a pond
Of which I am fond.
I’m about three feet in size
And have nice black eyes.

The Ibis
The Ibis

By Kelly

Grade 6

Ibis, Ibis
Hear them weep
Don’t you know this
Water is too deep?

Shallow water
You do need
Run from the dirty water
And hide near the weed.

You found fresh water
And joined your flock
Be a good trotter
Don’t go near the dock.

White Ibis, Glossy Ibis, and Scarlet too
All of you different in many ways
I’ll be blue if someone kills you
So be careful when swimming in the bays.

Great Backyard Bird Count

By Philip
Fyle School
Rochester, NY
Grade 5

The Great Backyard Bird Count was great fun for me and my family. It got us together identifying birds; even my sister was in it. We had to use our best observation skills. It's kind of hard to identify most birds in flight. You see spread out feathers; then when it lands you see the actual size. I learned most raptors like to perch on high areas such as telephone lines. I suppose they like to survey their territory. Some birds like Blue Jays like to "chase away" other birds to get more feed from feeders. I think one of the main purposes of this
assignment was to have fun and gather information for Cornell University.
