HOW TO TELL THE SEX OF A BIRD

This Is AMAZING!!!

Until now I never fully understood how to tell The difference Between Male and Female Birds.

I always thought it had to be determined surgically.


Until Now.

Which of The Two Birds Is a Female??? Below are Two Birds.

Study them closely...See If You Can Spot Which of The Two Is The Female.


It can be done. Even by one with limited bird watching skills.

Victor, Dani, Roberta, Jesus, Fabiana, Rodrigo, Jonnatas, Julia, Sebastian and Daniel.

Wednesday morning - midterm test day for Intermediate 1 students - they are all here, except for Daniella who's taking the picture:

Roberta, Fabiana, Jesus, me, Rodrigo, Julia, Sebastian, Daniel - Victor and Jonnatas up front.

I was just thinking that a blog is a log, a journal. There should always be something here written on a daily basis. Well, even if not daily, there is always something going on. If I commit myself to writing everyday, I know I won't keep my promise.

Well, yesterday I had a very pleasant Monday morning with my students. We had a break at the Café across the street from the school. Here they are.

Daniel, Sebastian, Jesus, Rodrigo, Dani, Jonnatas and Roberta.
