                                                                True or False?
A bird that hatches with its eyes open, is covered with down and leaves the nest within two days is called precocial.

A bird that hatches naked,helpless,and hatches with its eyes closed is called altricial.
                         

                                                        Did you know...
The English name "heron" for this kind of a long-necked bird goes back about 800 years ago.
Herons are considered semi-altricial. That means that when they hatch they can't the nest or feed themselves,
yet their eyes are open and they are covered in down.
The Great Blue Heron is the largest heron found in Texas.It can be seen throughout the state wherever there
are fish and frogs,its favorite food items,are available.Herons can be told apart from cranes in flight by the
way they hold their necks.Herons fly with their necks folded over their shoulders, while cranes hold their necks straight out.

Philippians 3:17-21 Once again, I'm so sorry for not blogging this past week. I was at D-Camp, which is a camp where my church and a bunch of our sister churches have a camp for middle-schoolers and we get to know each other and God more. The Bible verse above was actually the theme for it. Camp was super fun by the...
