Me AdYentnres OF q Robin

Ouc WdIAA SpA 1uS O0ys Gil tAC
birds were singing. But one little
bird, La Robin, wasn't happy. He
was very sad because his mother
and father had been killed and no
one would play with him. He was
very cold at night because his
mother wasn't there to keep him
warm. One day he decided to go
on an adventure and have some fun
by himself
The next day the little bird wan
dered from his nest into the for
est. He saw an owl sitting on a
tree and tried to get his attention,
but he was asleep so he couldn't
play with the owl. So he went in
still sadder than ever. Then he saw
a field mouse and tried to catch
him but he couldn't so he was still
sadder. He kept going deeper into
the forest. Then he saw a little
cow bird and his wing was broken.
The robin felt sorry for the COW
bird and decided he would help
him. He made friends with the lit
tie bird and told him of his plan.
He waited until it was dark and
when he was sure the owl would be
awake. Then he and the COW bird
went to see the owl. The owl sat
on the tree and began to think
very hard. Finally he knew what
to do and told the robin. The robin
did what the owl told him to and
soon the little birds wing was
healed. The COW bird didn't know
how to thank him but the robin
said, IF you will always be my
friend / will be happy"
The other bird said, 20. K" and
they were friends forever.

The Restless Robin
Once upon a time there was a
robin. He went from state to state
looking for place to live. He soon
found a beautiful apple tree. He
thought to himself, This is where
1 want to live but first l must find
a mate to help build our home ;"
He looked around and there she
was. They built nest and she laid
three blue eggs. The eggs Matched
three little birds. Their names
were Lou, Sue, and Two. The dad
dy bird decided that he wouldn't
travel anymore. They all lived hap
PLY ever after

A Bird
We have big flower bushes in our

Blue Birds.

The Cardinals
Once upon a time there was a
cardinal who had a family in the
cherry tree.
The mother cardinal had just laid
four eggs. She was sitting on her
nest when all of a sudden they all
Matched out of their blueish-whitte
eggs! She had two little girl car
dinals and two little boy cardinals.
They were all very hungry. The
father cardinal brought them
worms. Then they were very hap
py.
Their mother and father taught
them how to fly.
They grew very fast. The years
passed and now they are big car
dinals.
They have families of their own.
They are very healthy and are very
happy.

Birds are Our Friends
Birds sing pretty songs. In the
winter when thereis no food for
them, we give them bread to eat:
There are. many kinds of birds.
My favorite birds are the Cardinals
and the Bluejays. This summer
I'm going to look for them.

My Bird House
| built a bird house. It had a
small round hole for a door. The
bird house was for wrens. One day
in the spring a wren came to the
bird house. 1t flew away.
Then it came again with another
wren. They made a nest in the
bird house. l am glad they liked
my bird house.
