Keeping watch

May 16, 2012

The three robins are spending time preening their feathers and testing their wings. Mama and papa robin are off the nest finding food that they bring back for the babies every ten minutes or so.

Ms. Pandit, Ms. Harris Frohlich, and Mr. Morgan checking on the youngsters


Although saying good-bye will be difficult, we are getting ready. Teachers roped off a learning-to-fly zone on the playground with caution tape in anticipation of the big leap. Students from all grades have begun to gather on top of the structure during recess to see the fledglings take flight!
