Backyard Biology - Students' Photos

This page is for my students, and their friends and families, to see the amazing photos my students have taken of all sorts of critters who live in and around our houses here in the Northwest. In addition to the superb pictures, the students had to key out the animal and find out all the information required on their Backyard Bio Worksheet. Their images are also up on the large bulletin board in my classroom along with their names. I'd love to share their photo credits here as well, but student names are a no-no on the internet for understandable reasons. So, along with the photos here, you'll only see my students' initials on their pictures. As soon as possible, I'll also post a link with each picture showing where you can click to find out the info they discovered about these backyard and household critters.
