Tuesday, March 4, 2008 - Nature Study - Birds
Our study of Birds in our Creation Studies conveniently took place as many varieties of birds migrated to our area. We saw lots of crows, blackbirds, redwing blackbirds, and Canadian Geese. And we also saw some beautiful white birds we have yet to identify.
**Edited to say that the beautiful white birds are Snow Geese! Thanks, ladies for your help!
Some blackbirds resting on our apple tree. 
These are the beautiful white birds we can't identify. The girls are hoping they are storks, but I have my doubts. They have about a 3.5 - 4 foot wing span, and some of black wing tips. They have long necks, but shorter legs than a stork. This picture is from about 1200' away, the closest I could get without making them take flight. Any ideas?

Thursday, March 6, 2008 - California Homeschoolers need the prayers of the nation...
Posted by gabalot
I am commmenting to as many bloggers as possible about the situation that has recently risen over homeschooling here in California. A serious threat has been made to the legality of homeschooling and who can and can't. It is a scary thing, yet God is so much bigger than some judges in a courtroom. Please first begin to pray that homeschooling will remain as it has been here in California, and that this will be dealt with quickly without families coming under undo attack or litigation. Visit HSLDA's website for information and to sign the petition as well. Thank you and God Bless, Jennifer
