NATURE ACTIVITY
SEEING COLORS

Hi everyone, its Moon Bird. Lets talk about colors. I have a great nature activity for you. It's a good way to use your Owl Eyes and become aware of all that is around you. Do this with me and before you know it you will be seeing lots and lots of things in nature. This activity will really "open your eyes", so to speak. Ha, ha, ha. Get it?

Well, anyway, it goes like this. Take a walk around your house. That was easy, wasn't it? Now, do it again. This time look around at all the different colors you can see in nature. Non-nature things don't count. For example, don't use the house, or the sidewalk, or telephone poles, or anything like that.

Take that walk for a third time. This time take a pad and a pen or pencil. Write down a color at the top of the page. If you wrote down yellow, for example, then you will write on your pad everything in nature that is yellow that you can see on your little walk. All shades of yellow count. See how it works? To complete this nature activity, do this for every primary color of the rainbow.

How did it go? Did you find all that you were looking for? What color did you see most? Were there any you could not find at all? Do you think wild animals can see as good as you?

Here is a suggestion for another activity. Lets call it....hmmmm......Headline please!

NATURE ACTIVITY
NIGHT COLORS

Thank you. Nice looking headline.
Where was I? Oh yes. In this nature activity you can sit outside in one spot. That's my favorite, sitting in one spot. Get comfortable, you will be there for about an hour. Take your seat just after the sun sets, but when there is still plenty of light.

Watch how the colors change as it gets darker and darker. Which ones can you see for the longest time? Which ones fade quickly? Can you see shades of gray and black? Are there things you can see at night that you couldn't see during the day? What animals do you think can see good at night?
