A Homeschooling Day in March

Friday it SNOWED (well for all of 10 minutes or so lol) here in the desert of Las Vegas. Josh and I had already been up to the park for our birding walk, a VERY cold walk - well here in the desert 40 degrees IS cold :) especially with the winds that accompany it. When it began to snow we went back up to the park for yet another walk.

Were we glad we did! We ended up getting some great looks at a Northern Flicker on the second walk. The flicker pictured in the link is a yellow-shafted flicker while here we have a red-shafted flicker. There are just a few differences between the two but you can get a good idea of what we saw from this.

Charlotte Mason would have been proud of us out and about even in this weather.
