Kids Restore the Kepler - Fantails

This term we are looking at Native Birds.  We started this week with the Fantail.

These birds are known for their friendly 'cheet cheet' call and energetic flying antics.  The fantail is easily recognized by its fan-shaped tail.  Their main prey are moths, flies, spiders, wasps and beetles, although they sometimes also eat fruit.

We made our own fantail sitting in a tree with their eggs in a nest.
