Fork-tailed Flycatcher Day!


Our Trip


My dad work me up in the morning at 6am!! We went outside in the backyard we heard and saw a Magnolia Warbler! It was so pretty!  And in the backyard we saw a Mourning Dove nesting! Then I went to school all day. When I came home off the bus my dad said we have to go in the car to get a Fork-tailed Flycatcher! We had to go to a cemetery near Boston! We got there and we were all mixed up where to go and we finally got there and lots of people were looking at it so we knew it was gonna be there. and when the bird was there also a Scarlet Tanager was there! Then we walked on the path and we saw birds everywhere. I got to see Canada Warbler, Wilson's Warbler, Yellow-rumped Warbler, Blackpoll Warbler, Blackburnian Warbler, and Black-throated Green Warblers and more! Then we went to another spot and when we got there my brother and me were playing around and my dad found a Cape May Warbler! My brother was running around and having some fun and he fell and then he pooped in his pants!!!!! Then we went to another spot on a river and got a Great Blue Heron and 2 Black-crowned Night Herons! My dad got me Mcdonalds.
