Today's nature study was at a farm owned by my friend, Robin. My girls have, of course, been to this farm many times and have ridden these horses. Still, they're kids and the farm is always an exciting trip for them.

The girls spent much time viewing, petting and feeding the horses. With our studies this season, we are comparing and contrasting. So we discussed ways the dog and horse are the same and different. Later, we'll fill out Venn Diagrams with this information. Lorelai did start on her notebooking page but then they quickly headed for the beach with their sister. They will also be completing a coloring page as well as their notebooking page on the horse.

 Our nature study for yesterday was planned a study of Geese. Unfortunately, there were no geese at the duck pond yesterday. We quickly opted for studying the Duck but that's changed now too. Also, Alexis and I found ourselves distracted by a completely different creature. That other creature will be a topic for another post. Our attention was absorbed, somewhat, by trying to figure out what that other critter was.. but this post is about birds.
