Have you ever wondered why birds migrate? This paper will tell you why birds migrate,what birds don't migrate and finally why those birds don't migrate.Their are many reasons birds migrate and the paper will tell some of those reasons. Many different birds migrate, this paper will tell you some of them that don't migrate and why. This will tell you why you don't see so many birds in the winter then in the summer.


There are many reasons birds migrate. Here are a few reasons. Seasonal atmospheric changes can cause difficulties for birds so they need to migrate to where they will be able to survive. Along with that changes in the seasons messes with the birds food supply by either decreasing it or making it very hard to find. Climate is a big factor in the migration process. The climate also affects the amount of food there is because if there is a hard winter then there is less food to go around so they have to travel farther than usual. Certain weather can kill birds, eggs and their young due to exposure and nests falling apart. Another problem some birds have are nest predators.


There are many birds that don't migrate.Some of these birds live in New England. They are cardinal, chickadee, blue jays, owls, woodpeckers, grouse, nut hatcher, grosbeaks, ginches, snow bunting, cedar waxwing, crows, sparrows and starlings. In Canada, Alaska and Eurasia redpolls live year round, crossbills live in the boreal forest. In central and southern California is where the magpies live. Finally the falcons live in South America and Africa


Some birds don't migrate for many reasons. Most of them that stay are strong enough to survive the winter. Also they can collect enough food to survive from feeders that people put out. Many birds store food away or switch to a different kind of food. Some can survive on the plants and animals where they live like the magpie and falcons. Finally being there early in the spring helps them be more successful in raising their young.

Now after reading this report you know why birds migrate, why some don't migrate and why they don't. It also tells about birds in different parts of the world and why they stay there instead of migrating. It was an interesting paper to report on and was educational.

Compare

In my other life I do not go to school but in this life I go to school. In my other life I help make brew where in this day it is a legal. Sanitation back then was a problem unlike today where we have indoor plumbing and sewer systems. Government in my other life was feudalism which started with a king ruling over everyone and went down a hierarchy of power, which is some what like today where we have a president, senators, representatives whom make our laws and rules. Back then they had to pay taxes on demand and now we pay them once a year. In my other life we had to do whatever the king ordered us to do, we had no rights, but today we have rights and freedoms to do and say what we want. Yes a barn can catch on fire but not by the making of brew.

event

Albin his mom and dad come over for a party at my house last Saturday night. They just came over to try our latest batch of brew when we smelled something burning. Albin said, "you smell that," " yah" I said, "where is it coming from". "over here," my bother said. I guess during the malting process the room got to hot and the barley got to dry and caught on fire. So every one runs for the well and I started pumping. But the well was dry. Albin saw a barrel and was going to use that on the fire. When I saw him with the barrel and he was running for the barn I said, "NO THAT IS BREW!!" But he did not hear me and dumped it on the fire. Nobody saw him but me and all of a sudden a big exploration came from the barn and everyone turned around. Albin came running out and said, "that was not water!"Then the barn burned down and we lost everything in the fire.

Culture

I hang out with Albin. We go hunting and drink. Our meals consisted of fruits, veggies, game, home made bread and some times fish. We drank mostly ale and cider because the water is unclean. I live in a small town that was built on trade. Our roads need a lot of work, they are narrow. Sanitation is a constant concern, open drains run along the sides of the streets. We have curfew bells that rings between 8 and 9 o'clock, that tells us it's time to stop work at the brewer. My house is on a hill surrounded by farm land where we grow our barley.

Government

Government in England was feudalism, which was not only a government but a way of life and a kind of society. the government was a way to settle disputes. under feudalism everyone was under the kings control through a hierarchy of authority. Everyone had a ruling power over them except the king, whom they owed loyality to. They had to pay taxes when ever the king asked for them. I disagree with that law. The law of the land was for security. Christianity is my religion. There was conflict between the lower class people and the government because the lower class people did not think it was fair that they had to pay taxes to the king when he wanted them too.

Personal Information

My name is Charles. I am 15 years old. I live in England. I live with my Mom, Dad and Bother.My Dad is a brewer. My Mom helps my Dad with the process of making the brew. My job is to soak the barley in warm water and then pile it up in a heated room where the grains are kept moist so they can germinate. My Bother is responsible for the malting process. Our house is average size with a large barn where we keep the barley. I ate a lot of stuff and drank a lot with my old man.

Ice Fishing

Ice
Fishing

I
woke up to the sound of the front door slamming shut and the sound
of metal banging it was coming from the kitchen, so I got up to see
what. It was it was Dad with the ice traps I said.

“What are you doing? It is 6:00 in the morning on Saturday!”

“Yah
but we need to get this done so we can go ice fishing tomorrow”
Dad said.

“Ice Fishing?” I said .

“Yep”,
he said “I have not been in 10 years”.

“Ok let's get it done”. We got the traps
and went over them. When I say went over them I mean we put the
fishing hooks on the line. Then we had to get permission to ice fish
at the spot we wanted to and get bait. The bait is shiners that are
small fish that have black lines down their back that go to their
nose or chin.

The
next day I got up early, got dressed and went out to the kitchen. Dad
was all ready up and ready to go, but I was not. He had the traps
already loaded. In the van with everything else. All that was left
was the ice auger, and that I had to load. I loaded it, and we were
off at 9:30. We had to get bait first before we went out on the

lake.
Then we had to drill all the holes, set the traps and wait until a
flag goes up and It was 10:30 by the time we got the traps set up.

It
was not long until a flag went up. Dad told me to get it, so I did.
But I did not get the fish. It took the bait, so I had to put a new
shiner on and put it back in the hole. Dad said that it was ok and
was telling me how to catch the fish. The another flag went up, and
Dad and I went out. He showed me how to do it. While he was telling
me another flag went up. He said,“Go get it.” I ran over
and started to pull it in, but I lost the fish. luckily the bate was
still there. When I went back to Dad, he had a big pickerel, witch
was the biggest pickerel I had ever seen. We scaled it, put it in the
snow and covered it .

No flags came up for a few minutes which gave us time
to rest. Then I saw one then two; Dad got one, and I got the other.
When I was running over to check the trap I was saying to myself,
please let me get the fish. When I got there I looked at the reel it
was still spinning that meant the fish was still taking the line.
Then it stopped. I grabbed the ice trap and slowly pulled it a way
from the hole and set the reel up. Then I watched the reel and it
started to move again. Next it stopped and it was time to strike so
I grabbed the line and yanked. Then I started pulling. Finally I
saw the fish and was proud of myself. I caught a pickerel, but it
was not the biggest. Dad had caught the biggest but I caught the
second biggest. Then we set the traps and waited .

The sun was getting low and we pulled in the traps and went home. On
the way home Dad and I talked about the day,like when he cot the big
pickerel and when I cot a fish and how prow I was that I cot it. Dad
told me about when he used to ice fish allthe time
