Owl, Early strigiforms, 1975

Owl sits in the field note for 1975 under “Early strigiforms”, and the figure beside it is 60. At the end of the children’s table, check that the label and the notebook match, and correct the notebook if they do not. Do not merge a zoo birthday with the field survey. This week, keep only the field side. A large facial disc, soft pennaceous leading edges and a short tail for woodland turns. Many species add ear tufts that are display, not pinnae. At the children’s corner, open Owl so the notebook shows 1975 first, 60 next, and “Early strigiforms” beside them.

This week, before you open the animal book in the children’s corner, write only the name, the year, and the figure on the notebook, then read those three lines once and close the book. At home, leave the notebook on the shoe shelf and, the next morning, read the three lines aloud once, then shut it. The order is Owl, 1975, 60, then “Early strigiforms”. When the picture book is done, look again only at 1975 for Owl and leave 60 on the notebook.

Do not line the species up by size, danger, or popularity. If someone asks which animal is greater, read the field entry for that year again. Check the picture-book label against the notebook, and leave any ranking space blank. Do not merge a zoo birthday with the field survey. This week, keep only the field side. Match Early strigiforms with 60 at the children’s corner before you close 1975 for Owl. Owl sits in the field note for 1975 under “Early strigiforms”, and the figure beside it is 60.
