About this ebook

Nancy and her friends find a mystery that's truly for the birds!
Summer is off to a fun start! Nancy, Bess, and George have joined Park Pals, a cool program where they get to learn about nature -- stuff like trees, birds, even bugs. Their first stop is an aviary, a place filled with lots of birds, including Carmen, a beautiful hyacinth macaw from South America.
But when Todd Steckler holds a creepy jar of beetles in Bess's face, she screams -- and Carmen flies the coop! Now the girls have to find Carmen before she's bird-napped. If they track down the bird, they'll be made Junior Park Rangers, but if they don't, they'll be three very unhappy campers!

    Birds of a Feather

    Don’t worry, Bess, eight-year-old Nancy Drew told her best friend. We’re going into the birdhouse, not the bughouse."

    Are you sure? Bess Marvin asked nervously. She twisted a strand of her long blond hair around one finger.

    Nancy’s other best friend, George Fayne, rolled her dark eyes. Give me a break, Bess, she told her cousin. You’re acting like you’ve never seen a bug before.

    I have, Bess said. That’s the problem!

    It was summer vacation, and the first day of Park Pals. For two weeks Nancy, Bess, and George would meet every day at the River Heights park. They would learn about birds, trees, and even bugs.

    The girls had already met their leader, Ranger Lynn. They also met the other kids in their group, Joey Fusco, Andrea Singh, and Todd Steckler.

    Isn’t the name of our group cool? George asked. She began to hop on one foot. The Grasshoppers.

    Nancy nodded. And the best part is, we’re all in third grade.

    Todd Steckler stepped in front of the girls. I want to be a Bullfrog, he said.

    So? George said with a shrug. Jump up and down and croak.

    Du-uh! Todd said. He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "I meant I want to be in the Bullfrog group."

    The Bullfrogs are for fifth graders, Nancy told Todd. Aren’t you in the third grade like us?

    So what? Todd said. I know more about nature than anybody here. I’m going to be a park ranger some day.

    Nancy giggled. Todd was already dressed like a park ranger. He wore a dark green shirt and matching shorts. His ranger hat was just like Lynn’s, and he carried a red backpack over one shoulder.

    Bess grabbed Nancy’s arm. She pointed to three plastic bug pins on Todd’s shirt.

    Eew! Bess cried. They look real.

    I wish they were, Todd said. He patted his spider pin. Bugs are excellent. Except for grasshoppers. They’re dumb.

    Nancy frowned. She knew Todd was talking about them.

    Why don’t you be like your pins, George snapped, and bug off?

    Very funny, Todd snapped back. He turned around and walked over to Joey.

    "I wish
