Birding Club!!!

Ok, this is a little late, but I JOINED BIRDING CLUB! XD

We went on our first trip this past friday, to a place near Hawk Mountain. We were planning on seeing an owl banding, but that...didn't work out so well. Saw-whet owls, which we wanted to see, are rather small, and as it was rather windy friday night, they don't fly in the wind. So, the 7 of us, plus our awesome math-teacher-chaperone, basically sat in an unheated cabin from 7 to 11, playing 24 and this really cool game the teacher brought called Sets. I won my first 24 card! and it was a 3-dot!! it had a 9, a 2, a 6, and an 8. 9 times 2 divided by 6 times 8 is 24!!

anyway, despite the abundance of cameras and picture taking, I had a really good time and learned a lot about Saw-whet owls. they're the smallest owls in the upper eastern US, and only like 8 inches tall! I saw a few pictures, and they're so cute! >.<

so.... yeah that's about it. My family is going on vacation to florida/disney world this weekend, leaving on thursday and coming back on monday. so, I have the house to myself. I also have my ACTs on saturday, as well as being dragged to homecoming that night.

so..... byes!
