ODS Curriculum - The Hike - Bird Sounds page finished. Transferred with minimal changes from previous animals curriculum site.

Listen carefully to the bird sounds. Are the birds singing, or sounding an alarm? A bird alarm will be a short repeated sound, often very loud.

Where is the bird? Is it on the ground, in a tree, or in the air? How far away is it? Can you reproduce the sound? Draw in your field notebook what you think the sound looks like.
