Since the beginning of May, we’ve been happily watching on the Internet the progress of the baby storks that hatched in the nest high above the playground at Ashlynn’s school. Two years ago, the storks built the nest and have returned each year. Last year, thanks to the efforts of Ashlynn’s 2nd grade teacher, the PTA installed a video camera so we could watch the storks on close circuit TV at the school. Then this year, a national bird watching group posted a link on their website so we could watch the video cam live whenever we liked (of course, it’s hard to see in the dark.) This has created a bit of press and when Mr. Taylor was interviewed for a local newspaper, he included Ashlynn for a photo of some of the kids especially interested in the storks.
