Migratory birds are birds that migrate. They move to another part of the world (or country) in the winter. Then they migrate back again when the weather warms up.

How much is a crow's feather worth?

It is illegal to sell or even keep a crow feather. Crows are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918. The following is an excerpt from Wikipedia: The statute makes it unlawful to pursue, hunt, take, capture, kill or sell birds listed therein ("migratory birds"). The statute does not discriminate between live or dead birds and also grants full protection to any bird parts including feathers, eggs and nests. Over 800 species are currently on the list.


Why do some birds suddenly appear from nowhere?

* Birds are migratory. They travel great distances at certain times of the year. When they seem to appear suddenly they may have just arrived into your area. If you are on the migratory route, they may disappear as suddenly as they came. Another reason may be related to their territorial habits. Males of some species do not allow other males into their territory. Therefore, you may see a bird suddenly arrive because it is searching for territory it can call its own. Cardinals behave like this.
