Today is the last day of Winter break. *summery*
We've been pretty busy, and have been doing plenty of hands on activities,and spending time with friends and family. Here are some pictures of Christmas, along with misc photos/videos taking during winter break.
Seabird Sanctuary.
Making rice crispie treats
Heritage Park
Science: 1/2/11
learned about the age, size, habitat, diet, predators,life cycle and habits of the african rock python.
Viewed several photos noting their markings, color, camoflauge abilities and eating.
We watched videos of how African rock and ball pythons catch and eat their food.
Also viewed pictures of sea monkeys (brine shrimp) and watched a video documenting how to build your own hatching tank. Learned how to make suitable water and balance the ph to optimal hacthing conditions. Also learned how to harvest the hatchlings to use as food for fish.
Also talked about ants. Viewed ants feeding each other. Trophallaxis. Learned that ants eat, then regurgitate and feed the regurgitation to other ants. Thats how ant bait kills the colony.
Jan 3rd, 2011, we saw an Eastern Screeh Owl perched on our clothesline. We observed him for a while and when he flew off, we tried to call him back with a recorded call. No luck.
