Fun Friday: American Holly Tree

Today for the new Fun Friday I'll be telling you about the American Holly Tree(Well be doing trees for Fun Friday for now.).

The American Holly is the cousin of the Dahoon Holly.Averaging up to 50 feet in height it is a medium sized tree normally found in sandy,sandy,soil unlike It's cousin which is found in the swamps where all the soil there is mush.The flowers of this tree are I'm guessing purple and are found in big clumps.If you don't know what clumped is just think of a bunch of magnets attached to a stove in the same spot.The bark of this particular tree is gray almost black,rough,and rather thin.The twigs are slender,a light brown like color,and glabrous what ever that means.The leaves 2-4 inches long and are sharp!They are yellowish green on the top of the leaf however the bottem is more yellow than the top.The fruit of the tree is red with with usually one seed in it.

That's my report on the American Holly for this week's Fun Friday.The End.

Fun Friday The Letter V: Vampire Bats

Today for the letter V I'm going to tell you about the Vampire Bat.


The Vampire Bat is one of the only creatures on the planet from mosquito,bed bug,and even a kind of butterfly that drinks blood as its main food source.It makes it home in anything that's abandoned from wells,houses,but they normally make there home in caves.They live in Central to South America where there is plenty of farm land which is where they get there food from.They normally drink the blood of cattle,sheep, and horses very rarely humans.The vampire bat lives in huge colonies of up and maybe over 1oo individuals.There are only three different species of vampire bats in the world,the common vampire,the hairy legged vampire,and the white-winged vampire bat.The size of a vampire bat is usually 4 inches high with a wing spanned of eight inches.

That's my report on the vampire bat.The End.
