On the 7th of August Room 2 went to the Wanganui Museum. We looked at bird skeletons and their feathers . We looked at stuffed birds like the Kereru and Starlings . I like going to the Museum because every time I go there it has lots of interesting artifacts.
This is Seth with a flying feather . There are two types of feathers, a body feather and the flying feather. the flying feather is smooth to lift the bird off the ground. The body feathers are fluffy and keep the bird warm.
Hi Bridie!
ReplyDeleteThe flying feather spins around and I know that chicks have down feathers that keep them warm.
