    1. Good thinking. I think killing Bardy will cause more trouble since the newspaper said that there will be a fine and imprisonment if anyone did that.

  5. Borden and Sally reacted by looking worried that Leon was going to shoot Bardy because he was a spoted owl

  6. Borden turned pale when he saw that Bardy had spots. Why did he not start yelling and shouting that Bardy was a spotted owl? Sally later saw Borden's face and when she also saw the spots, she was horrified. Why would their faces be this way? Are they shocked, angry, or do they want to keep this a secret?

  7. Borden and Sally reacted alarmed but pretened to be fine so Leon would not see Bardy's spots.

  10. I think sally and borden felt very worried that bardy grew spotted feathers.Because cindy had to put on a red hawk's tail so leon couldn't see the spots.

  11. I think the author ended the chapter this way because after Borden and Sally discovered the spots, the newspaper will make us start wondering what will happen. I like that the author ended this chapter this way because it seems like a big event is going to happen.

  12. Borden and Sally's reacions kept Bardy safe.They kept him safe by not telling Leon that he was a spotted owl.The reson I know this is because in the text it said And then, she too saw the very pale spots and was horrified."Yeah, Pop." she said "We'll let him go tomorrow."

    1. I think so too. I like that you supported your response with evidence from the text.

  13. i think sally and borden felt when they saw the spots is horrified because sally said yeah pop i'll let him go tomorow and they will usually sally would want to keep bardy.

  14. I think sally and borden really want to let bardy go more now because he is a spoted owl and in the text it says borden and sally saw the pale spots on bardy. Also in the text it said borden and sally looked at each other worid because if leon found out that the whole time he was taking care of a spoted owl he will be really mad.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I think chapter 14 ended like that because Leon might have his hearing in the next chapter.I think this because the next chapter is called "Paul James" and he is the one that is going to the same hearing Leon is going to.

  20. Borden and Sally saw spots on Bardy and then they felt very suprised and they were worried for Leon (Borden's dad). Also,they were afraid because the law was that spotted owls are endangered and people were not sapost to capture endangered animals.

  21. I think sally and Borden were suprised and worried when they saw Bardy with spot's because they think since Leon hate's spotted owl's he might kill Bardy!!

    1. I agree because Leon likes all owls exept for spotted owls.And erlyer in the book spotted owls were getting in the way of his lumber compony.I do think Leon might kill bardy.

  22. I am thinking that Borden reacted very suprised.I think so because he thought all this time that he was caring for a barred owl because bardy did not have any spots when Borden first met him.I also think that Borden was suprised because if Leon found out he was a spotted owl he might as well wring his neck or kill him! this is why I think Borden was suprised.

  27. I think the author ended this chapter worriedly because it said " for an individual or killing or possessing a threatened or endangered species, the penalty is a $200,00 find and up to one year in prison" and Leon was killing an endangered species and he or his family didn't read it !! That's why I think the author ended this chapter worriedly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  29. I think they were astonished at what they saw because they in the book it said that Borden and Sally were horiffieid at the scean and it seemed like he wanted to shoot Bardy when I first read it, so I was scared to read about what happened next.It was really weird because it wasn't what I was expecting.It seemed like they were trying to hold there anger back and just ring his neck the next day.

  30. Borden and sally reacted nerveos and worried that Leon is going to wrig Bardy's neck.

  31. Borden and sally's react was shocked. I think that they were shocked because they had no idea Barby was a spotted owl. I do not think they now what to do but let him go.

  33. I am thinking that Borden's reaction was starteled. I think so because all this time Borden was expexting bardy to be a barred owl all the time!

  34. The author ended the chapter this way because it makes it one of those books that you just can't put down, and also make it more mystiris.

    3. I agree that this book is one you just can't put down Brendan .I also think you are correct that the $20,000 fine was supprising espesilly when the fine for the fight was only $50 .

  35. I know that Sally and Borden reacted very suprised I know this because it sounded like they just stood there with big eyes. Also Sally and Borden were just like how did this happen cause they were just getting to like him. The other thing is that the author ended this chapter by showing the sign that said for an individual or corporation killing or possessing a threatened or endangered species the penalty is a $200,000 fine and up to one year in prison.

  36. They acted scared because his dad did not like spoted owls

    ReplyDelete
  37. I think the author ended the chapter with the sign to show that you shouldn't kill any type of owl or else something bad will happen to you. Also to show that you might just want to do the right thing.

  38. What I noticed in this chapter was that Sara and Borden didn't know is that Leon all ready know's that Bardy is spotted owl because when they noticed that Bardy was a spotted owl Leon knew it all ready and they were nerves that Leon might want to kill Bardy!!

    1. I kind of disagree with you Autumn because Leon loves Bardy so much...so Leon wouldn't kill Bardy....

      Delete
    2. yeah I think that to Autumn

      Delete
  39. They felt so scared because of Leon does not like spotted owls.Sally and Borden have to tell Leon that Bardy is a spotted owl so they can let Bardy go.

    ReplyDelete
  40. borden and sally didn't tell leon about how they saw bardy is an spoted owl not a barded owl I thinbk I now why they didn't tell leon because he would then see the news paper and then there would be alot of presher on the family so then they would run out of money because leon aredy lossed hes job.or they didn't tell leon because he would then wring bardys neck and borden and sally don't whant that to hapen because they love bardy but mabye leon won't wring bardy's neck and it woun't be a big inpact and put peresher I gess I just have to read and find out what will hapen!

  45. I think Leon and Brady feel sad because Grandfather says that he wants all spoted owls killed.The ather ended the chapter by a sign wich said individual killing the possessing species is $200,000 up to one year in prison.

  46. I noticed that Enrique was Bardys pop.

  47. When Borden found out that Bardy had spots, I think he was trying to convince Leon to let him bring him back to the forest as fast as possible. When Sally found out that Bardy had spots, I think she felt some-what sick and maybe scared because her face was pale. Oh, and all of this is down on the bottom of page 103 and the top of page 104.

  48. The story ended by the family got ready for dinner and then Cindy closed the news paper but she hadn't read '' For an individual or corporation killing or possessing a threatened or endangered species the penalty is a 200,000 fine and up to one year in prison '' I think it ended that way because they want you to get a clue for what the next chapter is going to be about.

  49. I wonder why Sally would put a red hawk feather on Bardy for his tail.Why not just wait a year ontil his feather grows back?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. They did not just wait a year because Leon wanted to bring him to court the next day and he did not want it to look like he hurt the owl and the judge may think he hurt owl because he used to hate owls so they would suspect him for doing it, and he would have to pay $200,000 and up to a year in prison, AND THATS BAD!!!

  50. I think that Borden and Sally feel worried that Bardy had spots on him. First i think that Borden and Sally feel worried because they do not want him to die.Next i think that Borden and Sally feel worried that Bardy has spots because now Bardy might not be able to fly.Then i think that Borden and Sally feel worried because now they probally don't want Bardy going in to the woods or out of the house just wondering around now because they don't want him getting hurt.Last Borden and Sally feel worried because they do not want that to happen again because they love him and care about him and they don't know all of the bad stuff that is out there.That is why i think Borden and Sally feel worried that Bardy has spots.

  51. On chapter 112 it said that police barriers and strangers were everywhere thats a lot of people.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Oh boy Bardy is a spotted owl I'm hoping Leon doesn't wring his neck bad thing.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I think they ended the chapter the way they did because it would leave you with a scared and nervous feeling for the next chapter.

    ReplyDelete
  54. I think Borden and Sally feel worried about bardy having spots.First,Leon does not like spotted owls they made him lose his job and Borden and Sally thought Leon would kill him!

    ReplyDelete
  55. i think the chapter ended that way because something bad was going to happen

    ReplyDelete
  56. also the chapter with something bad going to happen

  57. when Borden saw Bardy his mouth dropped and his eyes opened I think it is funny that Borden did that.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I can not believe that Bardy got spots!

    ReplyDelete
  59. Sally and Borden reacted horrified when they saw that Bardy had spots. An example is Sally tried to put the epoxy over the spots but it wouldn't stick.
    I think the author ended the chapter like how Cindy didn't read the other writing because when Leon goes to the judge, he will probable say you have to go to jail to Leon. I wonder why Cindy didn't see the other writing, or maybe it was on the other side and she didn't see it. I hope Leon doesn't go to jail because only Cindy will be in charge of Sally and Bordon.
