Passenger Pigeon


The Perfect Passenger Pigeon

The passenger pigeon is an extinct bird that is part of the wild pigeon family. The technical name for the passenger pigeon is the wild pigeon.

Description
The passenger pigeon was mostly grey with a bit of black, orange and pink.  There were black spots on their wings.  They had very sharp pointy claws.  It was 41cm long.  They did not have any ears at all.

Habitat
The passenger pigeon was endemic to North America.  They lived in very very large groups called lofts.  They preferred forests where large numbers of birds could roost together.

Diet
What they ate depended on the season.  In winter they ate beechnuts, acorns, chestnuts, seeds, berries that they found in the forests.

Extinction
They were hunted for food by the native Americans and Europeans.  The passenger pigeon was around in the 1800’s; the last one died in 1914. 

In conclusion, I think that they were so gorgeous and that it was so so mean that they killed them because they probably wanted their feathers and birds need their feathers.

John Pule Poem by Ruby and Lila

Lapis
Catching my eyes in along navy sky

Plants
Vines shining in the sun

Trees
Hanging under the willow

Cold
Freezing up to the tips of the trees

Feelings
Very lonely

When is winter going to pass through the jungle?

Bradley Park


Bradley park
The trees were shady and cool
I remember feeling relaxed
The grass was soft and green
I remember dipping my feet in the warm water
The playground was huge and fun
I remember my cousins throwing stones in the lake
The eel was waiting to bite our toes off
I remember being scared going in to the water
The rocks were slippery and sharp
I remember eating lunch with Molly in the sun

My Wiggly Tooth

On Monday I was waiting for my turn to go up on the stage for the play. But when I was waiting me and Tamera was wigling our teeth . I was wigling my tooth for a long time and I did it really hard.  I looked in the mirer and wigled it again. When I went back and wigled it even more. Then I bent my tooth and said to Amy that it is about to come out. So I stoped wigling It.

The dragon blew fire at a person because it got mad at the person.  He died. It went to its cave because it was scared. Because it thought the policeman will kill him.
