The Problem
We do not want the Michigan bird population to become endangered.
Our Plan
We are planning to make bird feeders and a bird bath for the birds. We already have bird houses. In the spring, we plan to plant flowers for them and make a garden for them.

Here is how the project went:
It was awesome! We painted clay pots and a clay saucer and we assembled them into a bird bath. We also made bird feeders from pine cones. We put natural peanut butter and assorted birdseed on them.
Through this project I/we learned:
It can take a month for birds to find bird feeders. You have to be patient as you wait for birds to come.
What I/we might change:
We would add flowers and make a garden. We hope the people at Lake Michigan Academy will do this in the spring.
My/our favorite part of this project was:
Our favorite part of this project was making the bird bath and painting it.
Some tips, tricks or fun facts about the project:
When making the bird feeders, make sure to use gloves.
