I am going to inform you about how to find a good duck hunting spot and how to set up right so that you can get a lot of ducks. First of all, sometime before you go out duck hunting you need to scout out a good area where all of the ducks are landing. You have to make sure you know where the ducks will be going in the morning or night. You also need to have permission if it is private land. You need the right supplies for going duck hunting too. When you get out to the field or pond that you…
Flamingos are fascinating and unique birds that demonstrate some of the oddities of evolution. From standing on one leg to gathering in flocks of more than one million, these large animals have been a subject of speculation for many years. Flamingos are large compared to most birds, as they stand 3.3-4.9 feet tall. Their large size would usually prohibit them from flying, but they have adapted to only weigh 4.4-8.8 lbs. They have hollow bones like most birds, and long skinny legs. The…
off to Nantucket http://www.care2.com/causes/produced-in-your-backyard-rethinking-energy.html to escape the stresses of city life. But the Massachusetts island also happens to be an important habitat for a seabird -- the piping plover. Now that the birds are doing well on the island from 139 breeding pairs (1986) to 689 pairs (2015), the headaches and complaints have also increased. The complaints have gotten so bad that the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is considering relaxing…
It starts with one person, one idea, and one voice to start something big, to be the change one wants to see in the world, and to improve the world for future generations. As Wangari Maathai once said, “I will be a hummingbird; I will do the best I can”. The folktale of the hummingbird goes: there was a fire devouring the forest and while all the other animals sat watching, the hummingbird took one drop of water and put it on the fire back and forth as fast as it could. When the other animals…

Illinois use to be top contender, with nearly 20 million acres of birds. Boomers (also known as prairies chickens) are a slight larger stocky bird. They have a stocky build along with rounded wings. Their tails are topically short with a color blues. Males have an orange comb feathers other their eyes and dark, elongated head feathers. Adult males…
Taking defense, I aimed my fist into its stomach, pummeling it as though it was a battering ram until finally, the bird crumpled. When it was apparent the peacock was no longer moving, I cast it aside. Examining my hands, I could now see they were scratched, covered in blood. What had I just done? To my horror, up above, I watched three more silver bird perches lower. I glanced to my side, now noticing the chaos ensuing all around. More peacocks were on the floor, charging, assaulting. Maidens…
he Greater Prairie Chicken is a stocky chestnut, firmly banished grouse with paler shaded stripes, most effectively perceived by the male's particular and strikingly great appearance. Amongst the male's presentation, an unmistakable, stretched pinnae (adjusted neck quills) get to be raised over the head, and a substantial yellow-orange air sacs in the neck or greater the eye get to be swelled. Both genders have these noticeable neck quills yet they are longer on the males. The genders can also…
Tree cavity is an important breeding- and nesting-site for mammals and birds. Thus, these animals often separate the use of the cavity, partially or completely. For example, the small Japanese field mouse Apodemus argenteus nests in low height cavity to avoid competition with Siberian flying squirrel Pteromys volans (Suzuki and Yanagawa 2012, Suzuki et al. 2014). In addition, Slagsvold (1978) showed importance of different breeding season between the pied flycatcher Ficedula hypoleuco and great…
Cornell Ph.D. an assistant professor at Arizona State University in Tempe. Conducted studies of barns wallows finding that "Factors like ultra violet radiation from the sun, soiling and even feather degrading bacteria are known to affect the color of bird feathers once they are grown, and perhaps the best males are those who spend more time preening and protecting their plumage." These males with darker…
and the relationships each character has. For the first image, I had a hard time deciding what was happening in this picture. After looking closely to each picture that included a bird, I decided to select one hundred and ninety-one as the image that represented this picture. In the first image you can see a small bird flying behind Herakles,…
