Yesterday I went to the American School to assist in an English lab assignment for a class of seventh grade students. Volunteering for these types of sessions is something I always enjoy. No matter the age of the students, I feel rewarded for the time I get to spend with them. All of the students had prepared questions to ask, such as , “What is your favorite color?” or “Do you like the culture of Panama?”.

Here is a photo of the first group I met with.

Bird Watching and Waiting

I am still trying to get a photo of a redbird that has been visiting. These birds are really alert and know when you are close and don’t show their face if you are close. The will sit in a tree branch and just as soon as you leave they return.

We have to hide the bananas in the house and cover them with a towel. Still they find them and nibble under the towel. I never knew that birds had a sense of smell, but that is the only explanation for it.

I didn’t get the redbird, but I did get some nice photos of a blue one.
