Red Pandas

Red pandas are in the same family as the Giant Pandas. They are also like raccoons, and can grow about the size of a house cat.  These cute little pandas live in Nepal, Myanmar (Burma) and Central China. Red Pandas live in the forest and spend most of their lives in trees. They are most active at night and love to play.  These animals will munch on bamboo like there giant black and white friends, but also enjoy eating other foods, like fruit, acorns, roots, and eggs. Enjoy watching this video on a cute, playful Red Panda: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzlAKHXfizk .

Rainbow trout

Rainbow trout, also called red band trout are beautiful fish. There coloring depends on habitat, age, and spawning conditions. The colors of the fish are generally blue-green or yellow-green with a pink strip on their sides. Rainbow trout are members of the salmon family, and can grow pretty large. These fish prefer to live in cool, clear rivers, streams, and lakes, though some will follow a river out in to the ocean. Rainbow trout  survive on insects, crustaceans, and small fish. When my family and I went fishing at a river in Sequim we caught some Rainbow trout!
 Did you know that Whirling disease causes Rainbow trout to chases their tails before dying.

The Human Body: Muscles

Our body has three different types of muscles, the smooth muscles, cardiac muscle, and skeletal muscles. The smooth muscles are involuntary muscles. Which means they functions without a conscious thought. You will find a smooth muscle inside the stomach and in other hollow organs.  Our cardiac muscle ,aka the heart, is also involuntary. It  can also can be called the myocardium . It contracts and relaxes to pump blood through the rest of your body. Last but not least the skeletal muscles in our body are voluntary muscles, that are attached to your bones by tendons. They help us to move objects and pick things up. Run and climb and even brush our teeth. Just think what our bodies would be like without muscles!! Yikes

Here comes the Fall

My favorite season of all

When the trees turn red and yellow

And the clouds look as soft as pillow

Here comes the fall

When the leaves come down

They will turn orange and brown

Then we can go pick pumpkins from the ground!

Blue Grosbeak

 The Blue Grosbeak is a stocky songbird with a very large triangular bill that seems to cover the entire front of its face, from the throat to the forehead. Often they sing while perched at high points in the shrubs or small trees or of their open or shrubby habitats. Their habitats are usually at old fields beginning to grow back into woodland.  Blue Grosbeaks mostly just eat  insects such as grasshoppers,  crickets, and beetles.
