Winona R-III School District

First Grade's Nature Day Winona Elementary First Grades joined together today to make Bird Feeders. We used toilet paper rolls, spread peanut butter on them and then rolled them in bird seed. As we were spreading the extra bird feed we had some extra special guests. We found an underground nest of baby bunnies. We scared them and they all went running. So we quietly and carefully got away from their burrow in hopes they would return. It was an exciting day full of nature's surprises.
