* 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.

Is it true that ravens have six pinion feathers while crows only have five pinion feathers on their wings?

---- A biologist was asked to finally determine whether crows and ravens are really two different birds. This has been a matter of some conjecture for quite some time. Given only a cursory glance, these birds appear to be one and the same. The biologist spent considerable time watching the birds in their habitat and logging hours of observations. The observations did not appear to provide any conclusive evidence that crows and ravens are different. The biologist performed dissections of ravens and crows and found that their internal workings appeared to be similar. No significant difference was found. The biologist then performed very careful examinations of two live birds. One a raven and the other a crow. The heads and beaks are remarkably similar. The size and shapes of the birds' bodies did not show much difference. Even the legs and feet of the birds were similar. But, at last, a breakthrough. The long feathers at the tip of a birds wings, the pinion feathers, provided the conclusion that ravens and crows differ. A raven has four pinion feathers and a crow has five pinion feathers. So........................... The difference between ravens and crows is a matter of a pinion!

What is a theory about how animals navigate long distances?
