Feather

Last Saturday afternoon we visited the aquarium. Surprise! It was National Bird Day, and there was a special hands-on display near the entrance with fun artifacts to examine up close, like bird skulls and wings, eagle claws, feathers under a microscope, and a fun basket of tail feathers to examine with a magnifying glass. It was the kind of table that made my teacher heart happy. My favorite feathers were a long red and teal blue feather (I’m not sure what kind of bird that was) and a fun peacock feather.
