Dear Friends,

As 2009 draws to a close, I would like to thank you, our fans, for singing with us and doing your part to take care of the animals and  plants with whom we share the Earth. Every one of you makes a difference when you choose actions that protect animals and habitats, as well as keep the water, soil and air clean and healthyWe'd also like to thank the "eco-wonders" (the amazing animals and plants) that inspired our new songs of 2009. These songs include I Almost Kissed a Butterfly,  Plant a Habitat and Leaders of the Pack.

We give special thanks to our friends Sabrina from Oro Street, Jodi from EARTHROOTS FIELD SCHOOL and Lori and Reginald from BACK TO NATIVES RESTORATION for planting habitats and "seeds of education" in our community and inspiring verses in our song "Plant a Habitat." (Thanks also to Deanna Moore for your suggestion about the food habitat verse.)  CLICK HERE to listen to "PLANT A HABITAT" by Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders

Thank you also to Sierra, Anna and Cristopher for your inspiration in our popular song  "I Almost Kissed a Butterfly." CLICK HERE to listen to "I Almost Kissed a Butterfly."   A very special thanks to our fans Fionn, Amara and Claire (and your parents) for allowing us to post your inspiring videos on our website.

Finally, thank you to the Defenders of Wildlife and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) for working so hard to protect the endangered gray wolves of North America and other endangered animals around the world. Your e-mails inspired me to learn more about wolves and write our song "Leaders of the Pack."  CLICK HERE to watch our wolf video for kids, LEADERS OF THE PACK. You can also watch it on our kids TV website Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders TV.

May all of you have a happy and healthy new year. We look forward to writing and sharing new songs with you in 2010. If you have a favorite wild animal, endangered animal or plant that you would like us to write about, please let us know and we  will learn more about that animal or plant. Who knows?

Interesting Facts and Photos about Sharks

Category: Animal Songs- Ocean

Published: Saturday, June 12, 2010

Whenever I write a new animal song for kids, I try to learn as much about the animal as I can. I first thought about writing a kids' song about sharks after visiting an aquarium and seeing these fascinating creatures up close. I could not fit all the things I learned about sharks into one song, so I have included a list of fun facts about sharks below, as well as some photos. Interesting Facts about the fascinating sharks: -There are about 350 different types of sharks, but researchers think there are other sharks that haven't been discovered yet! -The dwarf shark is as small as your hand, while the whale shark can be as large as a school bus! -A shark is one of the best hunters in the world. Even their little pups go out looking for food. -A shark's hunger can be satisfied with one good meal. The meal can last a long time because a shark uses little energy to swim. Some sharks hold food in their stomachs without it being digested. If they eat a big meal, it can last three or more months!

I asked my friends, the dolphins, what each of us could do to help them survive another million years or two. And the dolphins said: “Keep the ocean clean! That’s the most important thing.Please . . .Pick your trash up off the beach. Recycle 'most everything.. Find out what pollutes the sea. And ask your friends to help keep the ocean clean. After all, the ocean is our home,”

Well, kelp is a kind of seaweed That holds onto a rock on the ocean floor ...

Listen to our Little Pocket Mouse song-in-progress

Category: Animal Songs

Published: Saturday, April 10, 2010

I’m small and furry, watch me scurry! It's the middle of the night and I'm in a hurry To gather seeds I like to eat. And store those seeds inside my cheeks. I'm a little pocket mouse. And when the sun begins to rise, I find my tunnel and I crawl inside. And there I hide the food I found And rest all day 'til the sun goes down. I'm a little pocket mouse. CHORUS: Pocket mouse, oh where's your house? It's underground where I cannot be found. Oh no, no, no! (no, no) I'm a mouse who likes my privacy, So it came as a surprise to me To learn I was hero in the rodent family! It started in 1972 On a spaceship that went around moon. Of all the animals smart and strong Who did the astronauts take along? It was the Little Pocket Mouse! With lots of food in their big cheek pockets, Five little mice boarded that rocket Didn't know much about outer space, but they were glad to help the human race That little pocket mouse! CHORUS: Pocket mouse, oh where's your house? It's underground where I cannot be found. Oh no, no, no! (no, no) I'm a mouse who likes my privacy, So it came as a surprise to me To learn I was hero in the rodent family!
