ReplyDeleteGreat job Lizzie. Awesome reading and writing. You have a future in public speaking -- maybe even on TV. You're also a super researcher. There were lots of facts in your presentation. Our favorite bird is the American Goldfinch. Check it out. We have them here and we had them when we lived in Nebraska.
