Pigeon Punching, Pooping Hawks, and Barny is a Girl.

Today in my 3rd period class, we had a guest come in with live birds of prey. There was a hawk, owl, and a falcon.

The owl, which I unfortunately didn't get pictures of, was cute and there were 'oohs' and 'awes' and it had a bad wing. It was a male and was very small and a full grown adult. It was a screech owl, and apparently someone thought it was a barn owl. The presenter said that they had a barn owl and named it Barny. He, Barny the owl, laid eggs one day...... whoops! Hes not a Barny! He is a she and Barny is now.....Barny....ette?

The second bird was a falcon. You know that falcons are 1 of the fastest birds of prey. Well this little, orange falcon charges or dives at his prey at 200 miles an hour or so and balls his feet up in fists and 'punches' the back of his prey, most likely another bird, (The presenter said pigeons) and kills it. so automatically I'm thinking that this bird ''punches'' pigeons because you know that birds don't "punch".

So would that make him a pigeon puncher? I mean, what did the pigeon do to you!? Is it like a bird gang thing now? Instead of it being called a drive-by, now its a "fly-by"? Darn furken pigeon punchers!

The third bird was a red-tailed hawk. She weighed about 3 1/2 pounds and was huge! The presenter took the hawk out of the cage and the bird pooped. People acted as if they have never seen a bird poop before. The girls screamed "OMG THE BIRD POOPED!!"and the guys laughed " hahaha! the bird......*snort*.....POOPED!"

I'm thinking, "because we can't see the poop. No durrr." I reacted not by screaming or laughing I just simply said ew. The hawk, I think, would have better manners. That ladies and gentlemen was my 3rd period class adventure on discovering birds of prey.

The funniest thing you have ever heard

I was aimlessly channel surfing and decided to stop on a random channel. It ended up to be this christian comedian named Tim Hawkins. He is the funniest guy ever. Here are some of the clips of the full range of motion concert.Enjoy!WARNING: If you are not familiar with laughing pains you will experience them in this post.

Fun with friends and family

Today we had a great (and a funny) dinner at Shari's. We had some friends come over to eat dinner with us. We were talking about Thumb Wars and my brother, Ethan, all of the sudden said ''I can smell the ocean''. We died laughing! We were talking about bathroom stuff, and my dad went to check on the boys in the restroom so, they wouldn't do anything weird. When we went outside, my brothers, my sister, and I sang a funny song;

This land is my land,
this land's not your land,
I got a shotgun,
and you ain't got one,
if you don't get off,
I'll blow your head off.
This land was made for only me!

I had a great time at Shari's.

the beach

I love the beach because of the smells! The smells, I can smell them now, the salty air, the ocean breeze and the sand. The wonderful aromas on the beach. Ahhhhh...

The sounds on the beach are loud. Ocean waves crashing on the wet sea shore. The seagulls dancing and screeching in the blue sky. People shouting and cheering for friends on volleyball teams and the sun rays buzzing the in the air.

Do you like to touch things on the beach? I do! I love the feeling of soft sand under my feet and in between my toes. When I think about sea shells, I think about smooth and rough sea shells. The rocks are big and rough. Don't you think?

The sights are astonishing! The towering rocks, sand stretching for miles and miles. Last but not least, the big open sky. Wouldn't you agree?
