バードフィーダ―(Birdfeeder)
Amanda, my English teacher, recommended hanging a birdfeeder in my back yard. There are many kinds of feed for birds. One of them, "suet," is fat with seeds in it. It attracts birds; it was very interesting for me to learn about it. There is a bird on the feeder; it is a woodpecker. She loves suet. Please enjoy Buffalo's birds!
ゴールドフィンチ(Goldfinch)
The first time I saw a goldfinch, I was moved by his beautiful, bright color.
ハミングバード(Hummingbird)
I was very moved when I saw a hummingbird for the first time. They are really cute! When I was in my back yard, I heard a sound like a bee. Actually, it was not bee; it was the sound of the hummingbird flapping its wings.
カーディナル(Cardinal)
カーデイナルもとても美しい鳥です。一年を通して見られます。お気に入りの木の枝にとまっているのをしばしば見かけます。鳥ってオスのほうが色が鮮やかで綺麗だってご存知ですか?
ブルーバード(Bluebird)
The highlight of my bird story is the bluebird. I couldn't believe it because I thought that blue birds were only in fairy tales. I took their pictures with my shaking hands. My poor husband has never seen them, because he works in the daytime. They (two couples) visited here for only three days. Amanda told me that this is the first time she saw them in her life. I was so lucky!
オリオ(Oriole)
The contrast of black and orange is very beautiful. Orioles are also very rare! The oriole nectar recipe is 1 part white table sugar to 6 parts water, while hummigbird nectar is 1:4. Orioles are attract to orange.
チカディ (Chickadee)
Chickadees' voices are very cute. Their names are from their song. They sing, "Chicakdee, chickadee."
アメリカンロビン (American Robin)
アマンダのひいおばあちゃんによれば、冬の終わりに初めてのロビンを見た後に3回雪が降って溶けたら春の幕開けだそうです。雪がないところを見ると、もう春が来ているに違いありません。
Amanda's great-grandmother said, "Three snows in the robin's nest before spring." That means that after you see the first robin after winter, it is going to snow three more times, and then it will be spring. We don't see snow on the grass, so it must be spring.
