Baby birds arriving soon at KES!

4th grade is thrilled to announce...we're expecting baby birds! We've been closely monitoring our bluebird houses, and although these are not bluebird eggs, we are excited to finally have a nest at all! There are six red speckled eggs in one of the houses. We can tell by the appearance of the nest, (messy, and made from hair, moss and feathers, instead of strictly pine straw), that this is another type of bird. After researching further, Ms. Webster's class believes that these are chickadee eggs! We will know soon, as we expect them to hatch sometime this week. Chickadees usually hatch within 12-13 days. We'll post again soon when our hatchlings have arrived!
