    I would resources for the southwest usa. It seems all nature studies etc are for northern states or midwest. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Fun! My little guy loves making bird houses, creating snacks for the birds, and just watching them out our back window! Hope the bird counting went well. 🙂

    Great links. We went hiking today but strangely saw no birds. Probably because we were in a redwood forest, and the birds are simply too high to see.

    Great post – such a good opportunity to build maths into something concrete.

    We have a special focus this week on maths and number posts at the Empty Your Archive link party, and I would absolutely love for you to link this up, Alice @ Mums Make Lists x
