This is a bird with grasping foot to snatch fish from the water:

Yogis may call this an eagle, but today we pretended to be ospreys!

Here is a tree:

Woodpeckers use their drilling bills to find insects in dead trees.

Next we pretended to be pelicans:

A pelican has a scoop bill to scoop fish from water.

This is the seed yoga pose: 

 We pretended to be the seed a finch might crack open with its cracker bill.

After Relaxing Recess, how do you feel? 
"calm," "tired," "happy"😊
