Listen to our new song PLANT A HABITATCategory: Animal Songs Published: Sunday, October 11, 2009 CLICK HERE to listen to "PLANT A HABITAT" by Birdsong and the Eco-Wonders Dear Friends, While I was writing my kids' song "I Almost Kissed a Butterfly," I learned that plants were very important to birds, butterflies, and many of the creatures with whom we share our neighborhoods. Plants provide food and shelter for our animal friends. In fact, some animals are very particular about the plants they will eat. For example, monarch caterpillars will only eat milkweed. What types of plants do the butterflies and birds in your neighborhood enjoy? We would love to hear from you about the kinds of plants and habitats you are planting in your yards and neighborhoods. Happy Planting, Birdsong
Lyrics to "PLANT A HABITAT" CHORUS: Plant a habitat. I'm gonna plant a habitat. The butterflies and bees are whispering please Plant a space where we can grow and feed. So...
With flowers so bright and nectar so sweet. And lots of food our nature friends to eat.
Where animals and plants can find a place With clean water, food and shelter, A home where they raise their young.
Can help all living things to survive Like planting seeds, flowers and trees The kind of habitats that we all need. to CHORUS
Carlos and his classmates pick up trash from the stream And how about a habitat for me and you?

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!

Watch our music video KEEP THE OCEAN CLEANCategory: Animal Song Videos Published: Friday, May 07, 2010 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,” We now have a Kelp Forest Coloring Book on our website, courtesy of Coast Cartoon Studio. CLICK HERE to go to our website for a free download of these fun, educational coloring pages. Have you ever seen a forest dancing Like a kelp forest dances in the sea? Dancing to the rhythm of the ocean A fancy dancing forest of seaweed. Slow dancing, swaying to the rhythm Hold fast to the bottom, and reach for the sun. Slow kelp dancing, swaying to the rhythm Hold fast to the bottom, and reach for the sun. Well, kelp is a kind of seaweed That holds onto a rock on the ocean floor ... Listen to our Little Pocket Mouse song-in-progressCategory: 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!
