                I am writing about blue birds for this week’s paragraph.  The female blue bird is not as colorful as the males.  These birds like open grass land and more spread out types of tree lands.  Blue birds can repopulate about one to two broods during the spring and summer.  Predators of the blue bird are cats, snakes, and raccoons.  The male will sometimes claim wood posts for making fences as marking territory’s.  The female can have up to six eggs; these eggs are usually pail blue or white.  This blue bird is normally found at lower elevations of the Mountain.

                Finally I am moving onto the “pick a bird and write about it stage”.  For this week’s paragraph I am researching the American Robin.  The American Robins are the most common backyard birds in North America.  These birds migrate through Canada and The United States seasonally.  Robins are sometimes found in backyards, parks, and open spaces.  Most humans recognize there high pitch warble.  These birds spend their time alone or in pairs in the breading season, and in flocks the rest of the year.  Male birds are very protective over their nests and feeding areas.  Sometimes they are a little over protective and occasionally attack their reflection in glass windows and outer car mirrors.  Two to three times a year bird couples will have three to eight blue eggs.  The female dose most of the taking care of the eggs.  She sits on them twelve to fourteen days out of the season.  I enjoyed researching this topic and I hope you liked my paragraph.
