These birds might not be the same ones that are in your backyard. They are all native to the Eastern United States, but most of these birds are found all over the world. Some are tiny, like the hummingbird, to some of the bigger birds, like the woodpecker. There are vegetarians and bug eaters in the collection. Lots of them are named as state birds (some are state birds in more than one state), and a few are even good at recycling. You will love all of the things that you will learn about these unique little creatures.

Bird crafts are the perfect shape for using paper plates to make them. Some use the larger 9-inch paper plates and some use the 6-inch paper plates depending on the size of the bird. Make sure that you have both sizes on hand.
