Take a look at Will Gorlitz's painting "Playing the Part", below. He makes us feel like we are lying on the ground looking up into the trees. How many birds do you see? What are they doing? What do you think is happening here? Some people feel like this painting is a dream, do you agree? What name would you give it? Try drawing a scene as though you were lying on the floor or ground looking up. Here are some more bird activities:
- Check list for birds in your yard
- Hone your looking skills with an "I Spy" page
- Learn to draw a bird
- Make a yarn bird with scraps from around the house
