Some animals make a lot of noise before an earthquake. Farmers have told about this. Dogs that are usually quiet have started to bark. Horses on farms have run around in circles.

If we find a bird nest,we will have a good place of observing (观察)and knowing about birds.

Birds sit on eggs and take care of their baby birds from April to June. Because the baby birds are too young to leave the nests,the mothers often leave and come back to the nests during the time to look for food. So it is good to observe birds. When we observe birds,we'd better hide ourselves in a close place to the nest,and it's better to use binoculars.

But how to make a bird nest? It's very easy. If you want to make one,please follow these:

a)  Each nest must have six boards (板).Don't make the boards too slippery (滑的).

b)  Dig a small hole in the front of the nest as a door. The door is big enough for a bird to fly in or out easily.

c)  Make sure that the rainwater doesn't go into the nest.

d)  One piece of the boards should be easy to open.

e)  Please don't forget to colour the nest.
