SO BIG! BLUE WHALE!

Dear Friends. 
   Check out this video of a kayaker's amazing encounter with a blue whale, the largest animal on Earth. It gives you a close-up look
 at just how big and magnificent these creatures are. I felt excited and tingly inside when I watched this. You can learn just how big a blue whale by listening to my song "So Big! Blue Whale!" on our CD IF I WERE A FISH and other Ocean Songs for Kids  by Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders®. I wrote this song as a tribute to the world's largest animal. See if you can if you can find facts about a blue whale's lungs, heart and tongue in the song! (The lyrics to the song are below.)

     If you are interested in whales of all sizes, check out "Migration", our music video for kids about gray whales. It has a catchy chorus and great photos of gray whales taken by our friend Guy Loucks. And if you like dolphins, a close relative of whales, you can watch our animal song video about dolphins and echolocation, called Clickety Clack, in a previous blog post. In this video you will find dolphin photos by NOAA and the lyrics of the song so that you can sing along. Clickety-Clack  is the first song on my CD IF I WERE A FISH and other Ocean Songs for Kids  by Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders®. I love seeing dolphins and whales off the coast of California where I live. Learning about these creatures inspires me to write more animal songs for kids. I'd love to hear about any whale or dolphin encounters you have had.

LYRICS TO "SO BIG! BLUE WHALE!"

So Big! (So Big!) Blue Whale! (Blue Whale!)

It's the biggest whale in the sea.

So Big! Blue Whale! It's the biggest whale in the sea.

 

How big is a blue whale?  It's bigger than you or me.

Is it bigger than an elephant?  Yes, oh yes-siree.

It's bigger than a tyrannosaurus rex.  It's the largest animal that's ever lived.

Longer than a jet from head to tail.  Well that's a mighty, mighty big whale!

 

So Big! Blue Whale! It's the biggest whale in the sea.

So Big! Blue Whale! It's the biggest whale in the sea.

 

How big is a blue whale?  It's bigger than you or me.

Is it heavier than ninety-nine giraffes?  Yes, oh yes-siree.

It's bigger than a tyrannosaurus Rex.  It's the largest animal that's ever lived.

Longer than a jet from head to tail.  Well that's a mighty, mighty big whale!

 

So Big! Blue Whale! It's the biggest whale in the sea.

So Big! Blue Whale! It's the biggest whale in the sea.

 

It's the super duper most gigantic baleen whale by far, with a heart as big as a small engine car.  And with the largest lungs of any animal alive, it can blow air fifteen feet high in the sky. And not only is it big,

But it's the loudest animal around, with a low, rumble-like-a jet kind of sound. And its tongue is so very enormously big, that fifty people

Could stand on it and dance the jig!   That's SO…

 

So Big! Blue Whale!  It's the biggest whale in the sea.

So Big! Blue Whale! It's the biggest whale in the sea.

 

How big is a blue whale?  It's bigger than you or me.

Is it bigger than a dinosaur?  Yes, oh yes-siree.

It's bigger than a tyrannosaurus rex.  It's the largest animal that's ever lived.

Longer than a jet from head to tail.  Well that's a mighty, mighty big whale!

It's bigger than a tyrannosaurus rex.  It's the largest animal that's ever lived.

Here's to you blue whale, oh yeah. Blue Whale you tip the scale!

 So Big! (So Big!)  Blue Whale! (Blue Whale!)   So Big!

Dear Friends. This is a fun National Geographic kids' video about dolphins. Here you will see a pod of dolphins using their sounds to locate large schools of anchovies. After locating the fish, they then use dolphin teamwork to catch the anchovies for dinner. Echolation and cooperation are the names of the game in this educational kids video. You can watch more natiuonal geographic videos at National Geographic Kids Online. You can also watch my animal song video about dolphins and echolocation, called Clickety Clack, in a previous blog post. In the video you will find the dolphin photos by NOAA and the lyrics of the song so that you can sing along. Clickety-Clack is the first song on my CD IF I WERE A FISH and other Ocean Songs for Kids by Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders. I love seeing dolphins off the coast of California where I live. I hope you enjoy these dolphin videos. -Birdsong

Dear Friends, In this video, you can listen to the chorus of my new song, The Flowers have Gone Wild!. Did you know that: Most plants require the assistance of pollinators to produce seeds and fruit? Pollinators include birds, beetles, bees, butterflies, wasps and flies, ants, bats and moths? Pollinators visit flowers in search of food, mates, shelter and nest-building materials? The sugar in a flower's nectar and the protiens, fats, vitamins and minerals from its pollen provide food and energy for pollinators? This energy helps pollinators grow and provides power for their metamorphosis, flight and reproduction? Most wildflowers are fertilized when pollinators visit the flower and then carry pollen from flower to flower? A flower need to be fertilized in order to be produce seeds and fruit? Without pollinators and fertilized flowers the world of nature (including people) would go hungry? Therefore, the relationship between flowers and pollinators feeds the world? These are some of the interesting facts I learned as I was writing my kids song about wildflowers, called The Flowers have Gone Wild! You can learn more about wildflowers and their pollinators on a great website by the US Forest Service called Celebrating Wildflowers. You can also hear the chorus to my new kids song in the video below. The video also has photos of wildflowers taken this past Spring in Laguna Beach, CA and Anza Borrego State Park, CA. You can find the lyrics to The Flowers have Gone Wild! in my last blog entry.
