This was helpful but not all of them. I still can't see that little bird with the long beek anywhere on their forum. Our forum has better records as far as this goes. Just wish we had the same birds that they do and this would be a whole lot easier. None of my bird books have these birds of SA in them grrrrr. Seems I need to make a visit to my local bird store. __________________

Ok here's what we got. I haven't a clue as to what bird is what. Can you guys identify them? Also, I did NOT pick the song, a 8 yr old did....LOL. Actually it's kind of cute. The kids will have to do this over as they are graded on ONLY educational videos. But as you know, we don't know what these birds are. __________________

Do you know what species of bird it is over on Pete's Pond that is building that little round nest.....? If you don't does anyone else? The kids recorded them building it from start to finish but we don't know what in heck they are. Hi all If those birds is yellow collourd (males) &grey (females) it could be yellow finches (or) otherwhise known as weavers ---- as they typycal build their nests over water on the end the a flexible tree branch of a willow tree ect . In that way snakes do not easy access there eggs or babies. OK were watching the recording now. Yellow with black heads and dark colors on their wings. BRIGHT yellow.Than these green ones come in..? Than if that's not bad enough some dark color ones not green or yellow fly in grrrr.. Now how in heck do you sort through all of these....
