Sylvia Durrant-Bird Lady Comes!

Today 31st July 2015 Sylvia Durrant the bird lady came to my school. She brought these: Tui, Kereru, Ruru/Morepork, Silvereye, Goldfinch and her 3rd dog as the others past away was called Missy!  First Missy chose me and came to me and I pat her she was soft as.

First of all she showed us a tui and we heard it squaking at us and flapping its wings then Mrs Durrant brought the introduced bird called... Goldfinch. There were two in the tiny cage. Next Mrs Durrant brought in the... Native bird called the Silvereye! it was so cute and it was like a baby and it squaked a tiny bit it was AMAZING!!!

 

Next of all ANOTHER! Bird came it was a Kereru it was SO! big and it was flapping and calling out loud and it was very scared of me and the other year fours and then Mrs Durrant put it back in its cage and it was fine. Then she brought in a......... MOREPORK it squaked and squaked and squaked that it scratched Mrs Durrant but it looked so harmless and cute.

Next was...... Max the Alexander Parrot it was a male and had beautiful light green and orange colours. Max was born with an owner so its used to being around humans and sitting on people's shoulders like a pirate parrot. Max pooped on Mrs Durrant when he sat on her shoulder.

Then Of course was the dog Missy she was so cute soft and lovely she went all around room 22 and went into the office. Missy was a penguin Dog and protected birds from cats and knew when someone was here. 

Mrs Durrant told us all about birds and her story's and how she buys food and all about donating. She also told us about how much money she needs to feed certain birds. Then it was time to go and I was a helper and I said goodbye to Mrs Durrant and Missy. In the middle of the lesson the silvereye's and goldfiches sat next to me it was AWESOME
