LA school day!

Fresh after a 10 hour long haul flight from London and after a disturbed night's sleep, I was whisked to Viewpoint School (www.viewpoint.org) early in the morning to speak to a group of 120 6th graders (11 year olds) about the joys of urban birding.

The whole event was put together by Tracy Wymer, an inspirational teacher at this school who has been encouraging the kids to study birds
 The kids learning about how Peregrines hunt pigeons
