More From Alaska

Hey class! Erv and Sandra (my aunt) sent us some more cool stuff from Homer Alaska. They loved the cards you sent them, and I know they were impressed by your awesome artwork! More importantly they respect and admire your appreciation for birds. Use that gift to teach others how to respect them as well. Erv and Sandra used the picture we sent them and put it into the eagle's wing...way cool! Also, check out birdsofpreynorthwest.org for the story of the bald eagle who got a new beak!

Hope you are having a great summer,

Mr. Sanderson

National Aquarium In Baltimore

Hey Class!! June 14th I headed down to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. I kept thinking how cool it would have been to have you guys along with me. If you get a chance it's definitely worth checking out! The sharks in the pictures are sand tiger, sawnose, nurse, and bull sharks.




They even had a Death Adder from Australia...Crikey!!
