Birdwatching

Birds of prey, like Hawks are the main predators of Insect eating Birds. For example the Eurasian Sparrow hawk is the main predator of the Blue tit, Great tit, Wren, Eurasian Robin and Eurasian starling which are all Insect eating Birds.

From a very early age, provided it is properly cared for and has not been injured. Contact a local vet for advice, or a local bird rescue shelter. Be advised that you will be taking on a pet for life, as wild birds raised by humans cannot normally be released into the wild. If you are not sure about your readiness to deal with the matter, take it to a shelter.

They can see all the colors you can see, plus a little into the ultraviolet spectrum.

If you're talking about the band Byrd than your asking the wrong people. If you mean the vertebrate bird than you can't be asking this question seriously. A bird has feathers, two wings, a beak, is warm-blooded, has two feet, two eyes, and a claws. Most birds can fly, the birds that can't fly are the emu, ostrich, peacock, and penguin. :0)

The average lifespan of a wild American robin is approximately two years. The oldest known robin in captivity was fourteen years old.

I believe I have found the answer to my own question. I think the bird I saw was a red bellied woodpecker.

blue or light blue eggs with blue speckles are robin eggs.

Natural selection. I have not searched for any research data on the www, but it is extremely likely that the depth of colour is related to health and general body condition, so hens will select for depth of colour, hence perpetuating the genes of brightly coloured males in preference to those of less well-coloured males.

its all to do with the seasons, it is cold in winter and so their food supply shrinks dramatically

so the travel South where it is warmer and food is more plentiful

They take their beaks and inhale the food.

what kind of bird is it that has a black body orange chest an dances sometimes

2nd answer:

Sounds very much like a common Robin. The robin, turdus migratorius, is in the thrush family of birds and likes eating berries and earthworms.

European (or Common) Starling and the Common Grackle

There are two that I know of. They are the Common Grackle and the Brewer's Blackbird.

The Carolina chickadee, Parus Carolinensis, is a small member of the titmouse family, more southerly in distibution than the very similar black capped chickadee. One of the first birds to appear at feeders, they roam the winter woods with tufted titmice and downy woodpeckers in search of food. In areas where their ranges overlap, Carolina chickadees may hybridize with the slightly larger black capped chickadee. Black cappeds are also somewhat browner on the flanks. Other than that, the two are very similar.

The quela finch of Africa, numbering in the billions.

If it's a large bird, it could be a wood stork.

They do in my back yard...Friendswood, TX 77546

They are both doves. The term pigeon is used for the larger members of the family Columbidae. The common feral pigeon of cities, is really the European rock dove.

You didn't say what the rest of the bird looked like, or where you saw it, but here's one possibility: http://nationalzoo.si.edu/ConservationAndScience/MigratoryBirds/Featured_photo/Images/Bigpic/baww2.jpg

It could be a lot of birds. When i hear that discription, i think of a song sparrow or a field sparrow or a house finch.

the bird is called an American goldfinch. we have a billion of them and they love thistle.

Could be a pied crow, a native to Africa. It's black feathers are iridescent, and can appear blue if the light is right. Look at a picture by following the link.

They can eat greens, various seed, plant life, insects, several different other edibles like cooked empty chicken egg shells and cuttlefish bone. Well, it's edible to them, anyway.

They are insectivourous and herbivourous, sometimes considered omnivores but not often because insects are not classed as a source of meat.

The Ern (aka Sea Eagle or White-Tailed Eagle)

they dont, they make their young play a cruel battle to the death, where the winner only gets to live, but never learns to love
