Birds in Girona

In Science, this term, we are learning about animals. Today we've listened to a talk about birds in Girona and we've learnt lots of things:

• the names of the birds in english: blue tit, cuckoo...
• what do they eat.
• where do they build their nests.
• colours and characteristics to recognise them.
• where can we find them in Girona or nearby.
• which birds fly to other cities or places to find food.
• some curiosities:

               -the cuckoo doesn't build a nest. It puts the eggs on another nest and throws away the other eggs, so the owners of the nest feed the baby cuckoo.
                -the black swift sleeps while flying because only half of the brain sleeps.

It's been very interesting! Thank you Ponç for coming!
