Welcome to day two of our Big Schools Bird Watch! What a beautiful clear day for bird watching yesterday, what did you spot? I saw lots of lovely birds in our garden including robins, blue tits, great tits and sparrows!
Please complete the form to tell me what you saw.
I hope you can find 10 minutes in your day today to have a little look for the birds around you. It’s a wonderful relaxing activity to take part in and you can do it on your own or with someone, even your whole household!
Our bird of the day is brought to you by P2/3.
Today it is the Blue Tit!
The first activity idea I have for you today is a story. It is very cold outside this week so snuggle up and enjoy a wee story with someone in your house. They are about our bird of the day, a very common bird we see where we live, a blue tit.
There are three stories to choose from using the links below. The third is an audio story.

Once you’ve listened to a story I’d love to see any art you could do to show me your favourite part. Maybe you could draw a picture or make the characters using play dough. Please send them to your teacher or to me at corrine.mason@eastayrshire.org.uk
Here are a couple of online bird games for you to try…
