Birds of Prey

Today, we had some very special guests in the gym.  Look carefully at this picture...

It's a bird! It's a plane!  No--it's really a bird!

We were visited by Talons!, a special assembly about birds of prey.  We met a real falconeer and learned all about taking care of these birds.  We also got to see a raven and a hawk up close, and even got to pet the talons of an owl!
