Bird Blog 4

                                                    The Brown Pelican

I know, I know your going to ask me why I have not been bird blogging in so long.  Well, I guess I just totally forgot about it and started writing other interesting stories.  Anyways lets get onto the facts about this amazing bird.  Guess what it is.  If you guessed Brown Pelican your right!  So, the reason I am talking about this specific pelican is because I saw at least two in San Fransisco.  Now this magnificent pelican may not be as big as the American white pelican but it sure is cool.

  This bird is (at breeding times) a  brownish grayish color on its body and a bright red or black neck.  Its head is yellowish and whitish and it has a white and black beak that contrast. So these pelicans get there food by plunging into the shallow water. Doing that stuns the fish and they automatically  go into the pelicans mouth. Pretty smart, eh?

These amazing birds live along the coast. So if your planning to go to San fransisco or the bay be sure to take a camera, because you will see this bird.  Fun fact! Did you know that the oldest brown pelican lived for 43 years! That's about as long as Mozart did!

Imagine a world with no brown pelicans what so ever.  Well, thats exactly what happened in the 20th century, when pesticides nearly made this bird go extinct! but then after a few years the bird started making a recovery because the use of pesticides decreased. The pesticides made the birds eggs so thin that they would crack immediately, but you don't need to worry because the brown pelican is now really common and those pesticides haven't been use in a long time.

Anyways that is a really interesting bird, eh?!

Return of Mathitonious



  Remember the world of Mathitonious well here is the sequel to the last story "Mathitonious". After the  aliens left Earth The figured out that Mathitonious was gone! When the alien king, Smart guy saw this, he thought the Earthlings had stolen Mathitonious. Then he thought twice and said," No, that planet is much too big to fit in Earth. " So they brainstormed and finally one alien came up with a solution.  It was the average alien.  Everyone laughed at the idea at having average alien actually coming up with a solution.  Then suddenly the king shouted,"Quiet!" lets here what this boy has to see or we will all die."  Average alien said," This is where I think it is hidden . . . do you remember that star that our scimathist taught us about, the one that we orbit.  He also said that in a very short time we would be eaten by it."  " Well. we may have not gotten eaten by it but our planet probably did!" Everyone gasped at this theory at first they thought he was kidding but then it occurred to them that that might have actually happened.  "How do we get our planet back?" asked someone in the crowd. Average alien thought for a moment and in tears said," we'll never get it back." Everyone was about to protest but again he was right.  There was a moment of despair for everyone. Then the alien king said," we can't just live here and die". What do we do!".  This time the scimathist came in and interrupted he said,"looking for something" and behind them they saw the ashes of there colorful planet.  Everyone knew what happened. "We still don't know what to do came an irritated voice from the crowd." Someone else said I guess we can go back to Earth.  Everyone agreed and the scimathist had a rocket built in no time they went back to Earth and landed . . . er I mean crash landed onto someones picnic table.  Every was startled to see the Mathitonious aliens come back.  "We . . . um came to live here because of some minor problems", The king said. Everyone thought about it and said,"Yeah! we would love your company."  Yay, said everyone and they lived happyish ever after only because they couldn't have math class every single minute every single day.

Jelly bean green and Horsey Lorsey


A few years ago there lived a Jelly bean named Jelly bean green.  He was the first Jelly bean ever to be made but they never took him out of the factory.  So one day Jelly bean green made a plan to escape from that horrible factory.  He rolled through little door gaps and did a bunch of other stuff to try and get out but it was no use he was lost.  Meanwhile in a farm somewhere close to death valley there lived a farmer and his horse who was named horsey lorsey.  The farmer took his horse everywhere.  The day when Jelly bean green tried to escape, the farmer took horsey lorsey to the Jelly bean factory. Jelly bean green found his friend Jello Yellow.  Jelly bean green asked," Do you know the way out of this horrid factory?" Jello Yellow said," I am also going out of this factory".  With the map that they had, they found their way out of the factory.  On their way out of the factory,they met horsey lorsey. Horsey lorsey saw Jello yellow and thought she was a tasty meal. Horsey lorsey then ate Jello yellow.Then, horsey lorsey turned into a dragon.The dragon had blue and black scales, with humongous orange wings, he also had yellow talons.  After that story Jelly bean green and horsey lorsey became friends.  As for the farmer, he ordered a ferrari.  He knew that ferraris don't eat Jelly beans and turn in to dragons and he hoped it wouldn't.
