0:00:09 > 0:00:11The boy who's bananas about birds.

0:00:11 > 0:00:18Plus Elsa lends a hand in the snow.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28First, in America students have walked out of their schools

0:00:28 > 0:00:32to protest gun violence.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35It's after an attack in Florida which happened one month ago.

0:00:35 > 0:00:36Here's what they did.

0:00:36 > 0:00:37End gun violence!

0:00:37 > 0:00:43No more violence!

0:00:43 > 0:00:46These are the chants of thousands of American students who walked out

0:00:46 > 0:00:48of their classrooms.

0:00:48 > 0:00:48Enough is enough!

0:00:48 > 0:00:52Enough is enough!

0:00:52 > 0:00:54This Snapmap shows just how many kids were sharing

0:00:54 > 0:00:59videos of the event.

0:00:59 > 0:01:04There were 3000 demonstrations across the US in major

0:01:04 > 0:01:06cities like New York, Chicago and the city where

0:01:06 > 0:01:11the latest school shooting happened, Parkland in Florida.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13Now when people think of Parkland they're not only going to think

0:01:13 > 0:01:16of the 17 beautiful people that we lost, they're

0:01:16 > 0:01:19going to think of the change that the rest of us have sparked.

0:01:19 > 0:01:20We want change!

0:01:20 > 0:01:24We want change!

0:01:24 > 0:01:28We're marching against the Parkland shooting that happened in Florida

0:01:28 > 0:01:30and so we believe that it's really cruel and it shouldn't

0:01:30 > 0:01:31have happened.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33People should be confident when you come to school.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35You shouldn't worry about getting hurt, getting injured.

0:01:35 > 0:01:39School should be a safe place, it should be like a second home to you.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42In order to get our stronger message across we needed to hold it

0:01:42 > 0:01:46here where everybody gets to hear that we are together,

0:01:46 > 0:01:47we are one, we are with Florida.

0:01:47 > 0:01:51At the end of the day, we just want our schools to be safe.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54We think that people get guns too easily and because of the school

0:01:54 > 0:01:57shooting that happened a couple of weeks ago, that

0:01:57 > 0:01:59was just not right.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01I am inspired and empowered by each and everyone

0:02:01 > 0:02:06of you who has walked out today!

0:02:06 > 0:02:09And I'm a survivor.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11The White House have released details of their plans to help

0:02:11 > 0:02:14with this issue including training teachers and school staff

0:02:14 > 0:02:20in how to use firearms.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23But many of the students protesting want more and they will march again

0:02:23 > 0:02:28on the 24th of this month to the capital city, Washington DC,

0:02:28 > 0:02:31where the president lives, in an event called March For Our

0:02:31 > 0:02:33Lives.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37Next, ever thought about becoming a journalist like me?

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Lots of you have been having a go at doing just that

0:02:40 > 0:02:45for School Report News Day.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47It's a BBC journalism project which encourages kids to learn

0:02:47 > 0:02:53about the news and to find and make your own news stories.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56One thing School Report is focusing on this year is fake news.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59Head online to see what some students had to say about it.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01And while you're there, it might sound like fake news

0:03:01 > 0:03:05but I promise it's real - space ports are coming to the UK!

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Check it out.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Next, Colombia in South America has the biggest number of bird

0:03:10 > 0:03:13species on the planet.

0:03:13 > 0:03:18And one ten-year-old has made it his mission to find them all.

0:03:18 > 0:03:19There is one.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21And another.

0:03:21 > 0:03:26That's a beautiful one.

0:03:26 > 0:03:32Juan from Colombia has a passion for finding birds.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35TRANSLATION:In three years I've seen 491 species of bird.

0:03:35 > 0:03:40491?

0:03:40 > 0:03:44Not bad at all, but in the Colombian jungle, there are reportedly

0:03:44 > 0:03:461,920 different species, so how does he go

0:03:46 > 0:03:52about spotting them?

0:03:52 > 0:03:55He paces through the Colombian jungle with a pair of binoculars

0:03:55 > 0:03:57and parents in tow...

0:03:57 > 0:04:03and has a special book to identify what they are.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05TRANSLATION:Their colours - some species have pretty colours -

0:04:05 > 0:04:10and also by their behaviour, how they hunt.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13So, he has seen 491 birds.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17Is he giving up any time soon?

0:04:17 > 0:04:21No, he has set his sights on seeing all of them in the jungle,

0:04:21 > 0:04:24and then he wants to see all the birds in the world!

0:04:24 > 0:04:27What a big dream.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Finally, it's just as well that the cold doesn't bother her,

0:04:32 > 0:04:36because Elsa's been spotted helping out in the snow.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40When this police van got stuck after heavy blizzards

0:04:40 > 0:04:43in Boston in the US, a man dressed up as the Frozen

0:04:43 > 0:04:45favourite became an unexpected hero.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48He stepped out into the cold to help the vehicle get moving.

0:04:48 > 0:04:49Looks pretty chilly to me!

0:04:49 > 0:04:52Don't "let it go"!

0:04:52 > 0:04:54That's all for today.

0:04:54 > 0:05:00Have a great evening.
