The kids of fourth grade were studying the volcanoes, so the teachers decided to go the Volcano Poas . When we were going to the Laguna Botos, Nicole was talking with the guide about how they can measure the crater and see when the volcano may erupt. He was also talking about the birds that live in the volcano for example, the humming bird. When Nicole was near the Laguna Botos, she saw a yellow tail squirrel that used his tail like an umbrella. When Nicole and the guide were almost in the parking lot the guide was telling Nicole about some mushrooms that were growing in the bark of a tree. That was REALLY Cool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YELLOW-GREEN SQUIRREL

AT POAS VOLCANO,THERE ARE NOT MANY MAMMALS. ONE MAMMAL IS THE YELLOW-GREEN SQUIRREL. WE FOUND THE SQUIRREL BETWEEN 2 BRANCHES WITH IT TAIL ON IT'S HEAD TO PROTECT IT FROM THE RAIN. IT LOOKED SO CUTE AND SO WELL FED BECAUSE IT WAS SATISFIED.

Last Friday the 13th of November, we went to Poas Volcano. We saw these plants that were like umbrellas! Maybe a long time ago they used them for real umbrellas. The name of the plants are The Poor Man's Umbrella.
