Birds

GIZZARD

Yes, they can carry a lot of diseases such as west nile virus and the bird flu, just to name a couple. The chances that a bird would directly transmit a disease to you are very slim though. You are more likely to get something from a mosquito that previous fed on the bird.

Birds tend to use small pebbles when it comes to digesting food because when they swallow their food, the rock goes down with it. What the rock does in the crunches and shrinks the size of the food making the digestion process faster. Hope this helps ! (;

Have a friend stay over and throw away all ur pics with ur pet just keep 1 or 2.

It is just the way that birds evolved. Birds do not have a separate opening for the urinary tract so both uric acid and feces come out of the same opening. The uric acid is excreted as nitrogen waste.

To test it out put them on top of a dresser or high bed and hold it and start sliding it of but make sure you are holding it and if it starts shaking it is and if it is not, then it is not..

Like mammals, avians (birds, or members of the class Aves) have four-chambered hearts, consisting of two atria and two ventricles. By contrast, reptiles and amphibians have three-chambered hearts (two atria and one ventricle, sometimes with an incomplete septum in reptiles) and fish have two chambers (one atrium and one ventricle).

Eggs hatch 17 to 18 days after laying. Mom and Dad take turns sitting on the eggs and then staying with the chicks after they hatch. Both parents feed them. Ours are now 8 days old. They are getting their feathers but not big or strong enough to fly. I was very concerned Sunday night/Monday morning because the babies were left alone all night. But Mom came and fed them Monday morning before I left for work. The parents are staying fairly close, but they aren't spending as much time in the nest. That might be because the chicks are getting a good coat of feathers and not as much down.

It is the eagle.

In 1955.

An adult Whooping Crane stands about five feet tall. They are the tallest American bird.

The wild turkey is the largest game bird in North America.

The rufous-bellied thrush is currently the national bird of Brazil.

Well, it depends on what size bird you want. Obviously, parakeets are larger and seem to be louder. Lovebirds have a softer, more high pitched voice. Lovebirds do a loud, even higher-pitched voice when they want to get attention. Lovebirds are affectionate, so you'd better get two to keep each other company. Parakeets are larger and are the birds you can train to talk.

usually in 4 to 6 weeks, they can teach themselves. make sure they have feathers for test flight. :)

the state animal of Maharashtra is the Malabar giant squirrel.

It is a omnivorous and a solitary rodent.

In Marathi language this is known as shekru.

It is found in the canopy layer of the forest in South Asia.

When it is in danger, it often flattens itself or freezes itself against the tree trunk rather than fleeing

There is no national Australian bird emblem. Australia has neither a bird emblem nor a mammal emblem - just a floral emblem, which is the Golden wattle. Some may believe the emu is the Australian bird emblem, but it is not.

Some birds, such as penguins, do swim in the oceans.

Ravens. Legend says that if the ravens ever leave the Tower, the country will fall to an enemy. For this reason, the flight feathers of the ravens are kept clipped so that they cannot fly away.
