Experiences

We walked to the park were a event was being held we walked across a bridge and took photos of baby ducks and most surprisingly near some large boulders frogs and frogspawn we took photos.

In the middle of the park was a stall for nature, free Owl pellet dissection, Owl pellets are not poo they are regurgitated food. I separated fluff and bones and identified what they were, I found two field vole skulls many arm and leg bones and tons of hip bones, we checked what rodent they were by pulling the tiny teeth out with tweezers looking at the undersides of the teeth and matching the pattern with a one on a chart my brother was unlucky he only found small bones until he found the first shrew of the day. We also got our picture in the paper and also in the skegness website (First photo at the top). http://www.skegnessuk.org/Skegness_Easter_Bank_Holiday_photos.html
The dissecting was fun and enjoyable and also a bonus we got our photo in the paper, most people didn’t even join in with the fun just turned away disgusted a man at one of the stalls told me that some girls ran away screaming.

I went to Natureland Seal Sanctuary

Seals
The main attraction was the seals, they span twisted and darted around amazingly, there was seven seals in a large water-filled Penn, they were see-able through a large pane of clear glass, they swam around and twirled in front of me disappearing and reappearing every so often. The Seals last feed of the day was interesting a member of the staff stepped inside the Penn and fed them it was intriguing how they fed and the speed they reached when they raced after the fish that was thrown too far from them as they vigorously flapped after the fish drop of water splashed out the tank and rain upon us. They played games and a seal hit a plastic ball knocking bowling pins down one at a time everyone applauded the seal when he did, the seal also hit the ball into a small football net.

My Mum woke me up at 7:00am we pack up and set off at about 8:00am we walked through the park it was a glorious day and sun poured through the trees we were covered in blossoms drifting of the branches the whole park was empty and quite it crawled with wildlife like birds usually frightened off by the public we walked to the beach and played a swingball set and again the beach was completely empty we played a rugby game that we run around and throw the ball to each other we carryied on playing untill we got to tired and took a walk the day was a bit windy but it was very fun we collected lots of little and big shells as we was walking we found two starfish they were still moving and beached from the shore we scooped them up with the lid of the swingball set and through them into the sea. further down we found a big bush of tangleweed and after cosletation we decided to take it home it started to get a bit more busy when people with dogs came down on the way home.

We went to the Chinese State Circus.

Who know that 47 plastic cups could make a 1.4m Tower (Building actual height 16 cups) . And to make about 2 and a half hours and 6 tries, and on top of that 2 seconds to knock it down.

No one was hurt in the making of this activity (Except me mentaly when it was knocked down.)

I was walking with my mum and dad going back from a walk to the duck pond when on the cycle path my dad saw a black caterpillar nice ‘n’ fat with orange fur it was wriggling from the grassy side of the path my Dad got a leaf and put it in front of the Caterpillar and it crawled on it immediately we heard a click snip click sound from the caterpillar as it it slowly munched through the leaf my Dad and Mum pulled up grass and plants with the right leaves it didn’t eat the grass so if we took it home we could pull some up from our back garden and feed it but the stuff don’t grow in my garden i pulled off my NO FEAR baseball cap and put the caterpillar in the cap then put leaves in it the moment we dropped it in the cap it rolled up in a ball we couldn’t take it home or it would die so we dropped it in a side were it was hidden and plenty of grass to eat it couldn’t be found or crawl out.
