My bird mascot activity

Scientific Name/Name: Rhipidura/Fantail

Name:

Why did you choose this bird: I like fantails in general as I see them as quite a cute small bird

What countries can you find your bird:  Fantails are an Australasian bird which means they can be found in Australia and NZ but also some countries in Asia

What good qualities does this bird have: They will follow you as you disturb the insects so they can eat them. They quite enjoy being around water like bathing in a bird bath. They can use their tails to change direction quickly.

What are their predators: Rats, Moreporks, Cuckoos. Moreporks will get some chicks and Cuckoos can take some eggs away.

What are their diet: They mostly eat insects but sometimes eat fruit.

Why would this bird be a good mascot to represent you: I'm quite friendly like fantails and like to socialise like they do when they see us walking about.

Fantails are usually quite a social bird and can take opportunities when they need food by following humans. While I may not take advantage of people I can be quite social with others. I love having a conversation with others and seeing what others interests are. If I had to design a Fantail with some accessories of clothes I would put some sort of hat on it like a fedora on it. You might just have to imagine what a fantail in a fedora.

 

Why dogs are better pets than cats - Persuasive writing

A dog lives long and is a friend for life. Dogs are great friends in life and can be around you more than a cat as cats can turn more into a lone wolf in the day. When dogs are young they are more playful and energetic so you can play with them or teach tricks. Dogs will be a constant friend in life for you as they won’t go away easily because they are very loyal to their owners, and even if they do go you’ll always have them in your heart. Lives can be rough but dogs can always help you cheer up, to do that you can get some dog toys and play with them or teach them tricks like to roll over or handshake which will make you appreciate them more. One of my dogs, named Roxxie, we taught her to do a high-five when they rolled onto her back and she still remembers to do that. I think dogs make great pets as they can comfort you in life and make it quite easier. At a young age they can be taught so much and can grow to love you. Cat’s are are statues they never seem to have any expressions or show anything for you while dogs you can see that burning love inside of them, you can see what they are thinking and feeling. I wouldn't trade my dogs for the universe.
