Brown Thrasher's Bird Club News


On Friday, January 9, the bird club put up 4 Blue Bird boxes on the school grounds and moved around several of the bird feeders. We've seen many Blue Birds around the school and hope that we will get a nest in at least one of the boxes. The feeders were located in front of a large window. We were worried about window collisions, but discovered that there was too much activity near that hallway window and we didn't see very many birds at all. We moved the feeder closer to a pine tree about 25 yards from the window and hope to see more action. Two fifth graders and five fourth graders helped out. Mr. Gaither, a parent, assisted with the mounting of the boxes.
