Over the summer at my beach house I saw lots of Mallard Ducks. I have seen them in the canal that is behind my house. It is easy to tell the difference between a girl and a boy duck, the boys have green, shinny necks and a girl is all brown. We aren't allowed to feed them because it is a Delaware law. We have some really good pictures of them that I hope I can post here soon. We also see a great Blue Heron. It is amazing! JM
The Citizen ScientistsWe are a group of 5th grade students that are studying birds. It will begin with the Great Backyard Bird Count and end with monitoring the school's bluebird boxes. All of our data will go to the Cornell Ornithology Lab. http://www.birds.cornell.edu/ Archives
