Hi, sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I've been meaning to do it but I get sidetracked. Anyways I've seen a lot of interesting stuff lately. A hummingbird, an Owl, Osprey, Osprey nest, a bird shell on the ground, and HOCKEY! But I will only tell you two exciting things.
Well to start out with I have braces. I went to the Orthodontics today and he said that I will get my braces of next week. Wednesday the 11 I am getting my braces off! Sweet!

The Ordway Carnival!!!!!!
Hi. last Friday, May second my dad, my brother, my sister, my 2 year old sister, and I went to the Ordway Carnival. Ordway is the schoold that my sister goes to. We had loads of fun. Except... There was one game that I stunk on. It was the Otter Toss. The ears of the Otter was 2 points, (points are purple tickets ) the tail, and the two arms were 1 point. I only got 1 or 2 purple tickets of of that. Then there was the Football Throw, Big Mouth Clown Toss, Cover The Dots, Baseball Toss, Tic Tac-Toe, and last but not least the Face Painting. I did the Football Throw and I rocked at that, the Otter which I stunk at, The Big Mouth Clown Toss which I didn't do good at either, the Baseball Toss which I did pretty good on, And the Tic Tac To which I rocked on. My favorites were the Football Throw and the Tic Tac Toe. I won lots of prizes. While we were there my mom was with some freinds going to see that play My Fair Lady. We all had lots of fun that night.

Hummingbird with a Cranney's peanut
So, while the Cranneys were here we went to a Barbecue Restaurant. And Karl the Cranney's oldest son but not the oldest child made a man out of a peanut. He gave him hair and called him Billy Bob. The whole entire night we looked for Billy Bob. We even tried to force the words out of him by threatening to hide his Game Boy but he didn't say a single word he just smiled and screeched No, No, No. You will not take Billy Bob. Yesterday, Thursday the twenty fourth I was In my room and saw something out of the corner of my eye. I got it and it was Billy Bob. I had found him. We were going to Execute him today also video taping it so I can put his death On my blog. It will be glory.
The day before I found Billy Bob my mom was out of the house to go get my sister from school. I stayed home because Adana was asleep. I got a fruit snack and went into the Homeschool Room. I was sorting my fruit snacks out when a Redish-Orange Hummingbird. It sat for two seconds then flew away. I saw eat some nectar on my neighbor's tree. It was so cool. That also means that Spring is coming and Bad, Old, Cold Winter is leaving us.

A Great Blue Heron and Roller Hockey after
Hay. Last Friday my freind Chloe, my brother, and I went to the Friday Homeschool day at Camp Seymour. ( See-more ) It was outdoor survival day. We got to go to this little shelter and make our own fire and cook our lunch over a fire. While we were walking my brother spotted a huge bird. It was in the tidepools. Our leader said that that bird was a Great Blue Heron. It was amazing! We had a lot of fun at Camp Seymor that day. We went home and relaxed.
The next day I had Roller Hockey try-outs. It was so fun. My helmet hurt my head for a little while and I felt sick from the helmet pain but I had a lot of fun and played hard. My first Roller Hockey game is May 17. At my try-outs we split into groups and did scrimages. I scored 3 goals and made the only goals on my team. If I passed to my team mates they would dribble it a little then hit it away from them so that they wouldn't have to face the tackle of the other team. The other team scored one goal.

CRANNEYS!!!!!!!
Hi, on Friday the 11 of April the Cranneys came over for 5 days. The Cranneys are our good friends from Turkey. When we moved here to Bainbridge Island, the Cranneys moved to Spokane. They bought a house in Spokane and lived in it for 8 months, then brother Cranney said: Um, yah. I found a job in England that's on the military were moving to England. Yep.
So they said they were going to get here Thursday, April 11 but then they called us saying hey the movers said they weren't going to be done until Thursday so were coming up Friday. I FLIPPED! Finally the Cranneys got here but they didn't have their Visa's that would get them into England. Finally, on the last day they were here their Visa's came. Again I FLIPPED!
They left Wednsday morning at 6:45 A.M. Bye, Bye Cranneys! WAH, WAH, WAH, WAH, WAH, SNIFF!!!

Bald Eagles
Hi again, I'm making up for that long time that I haven't posted. Well, yesterday was my first day of school since spring break. My mom assigned me a subject and since I finished my Flying Creatures of the Fifth Day book my mom has been assigning me projects and stuff and yesterday my first one began. It was pick a bird and find 2 websites and 2 books to learn and write about. Instead of 2 I got like 10. The bird I picked was Bald Eagle. They are truly fascinating creatures. I love them. I see at least 2 Bald Eagles a month. Baldies are types of Raptors. Raptor is another word for Bird of Prey. They aren't the only birds of prey, like Robins eat worms, some other birds eat insects flying through the sky. Raptors eat mainly fish. Sometimes an Osprey or other Raptor when they are trying to catch a fish that weighs to much will put the bird down because they don't know that it weighs too much so the bird will hold on and drown. Raptors also eat mice, dead animals, rabbits, also mountain sheep, and e.t.c. Eagles have very good eyesite. A Bald Eagle can see over a couple of miles and plan it's catch. A Bald Eagle's nest is found on big live pine trees and on ledges. They can weigh up to a couple of cars. A Baldies nest becomes huge because the nest they build they use that same nest for years repairing it and adding onto it. A Bald Eagles nest can become 15 feet wide and 20 feet deep.(Thats taller than a house.)

While I was in St. George, Utah
Hi, sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I've been really busy. I just got home from St. George, UT because I was visiting my relatives. While I was in Utah I kept seeing the same bird of prey like there would be two of them flying over a mountain that we drove by but the most fascinating times I saw it was when my brother and I were driving home with my grandpa. We were in the desert and all of a sudden I see a little speck over a mountain and it was just going around in circles and not flapping any wings so I thought it wasn't a bird. It was a bird though because it was going in circles getting lift ecah time it completed a circle so it had no need to flap any wings. When we were going down the mountains hill another one of those birds were following us by gliding with the wind getting lift every once and a while so again it had no need to flap its wings. Another time my mom, grandma, grandpa, aunt, uncle, both sisters, my brother, and I went on a hike to the petrigliphs. While we were there we saw a jack rabbit. I just got a little glimps of it running away when I got to the bottom of the mountain. There were also these little birds about as big as a finch they had white all over their back and pink on their bellie. I also saw these two birds that didn't fly away from us in the car it ran on the street all the way to the sidewalk.
