Eastern Meadowlark -
Sturnella magna
Bobolink -

Bullock's Oriole -
Icterus bullockii
Hooded Oriole -
Icterus cucullatus

What is the word for all the blackbirds in your neighborhood?

What are the disadvantage of rivers?
The positive impacts are demonstrated in the following possible benefits and uses of the multipurpose river valley projects:
- provides work
- eliminates flooding
- provides power
- provides water for human consumption
- helps to conserve water
- provides water for agriculture
- provides water for industrial uses
- provides for a fishery where one may not have existed before
- changes the ecology of the region
- opens new areas to agriculture
Negative impacts may include:
- they lead to the displacement of human, plants, animals, chiefly from small tribal communities;
- disrupt downstream fisheries;
- increase the risk of earthquakes;
- submerge forest land;
- increase the spread of insect-borne diseases; and
- threaten the fragile regional ecosystem through reducing, the flow of water from the rivers into the seas.
- These projects initially devastate human lives and biodiversity by inundating thousands of acres of forests and agricultural land.
- They degrade the fertile agricultural soils due to continuous irrigation (rather the seasonal irrigation which is dependent on the monsoon), and salinization, making the soil toxic to many plant species.

Can a blackbird see ultaviolet color?
The Kestrel can see into the Ultraviolet Spectrum. A human eye can see between 400nm - 700nm ( Visual Wavelengths. ) It is also correct to describe the human eye as being able to see between 4,000 - 7,000 Ångströms; The Ångström is simply another unit of measurement, like nm which = nanometers, on the Electromagnetic Spectrum. The smaller the number, as in 4,000 Ångströms, means that the wavelength is shorter, thus the electromagnetic radiation is of higher energy. As opposed to longer wavelengths such 7,000 Ångströms, which is closer to the Infrared. The Kestrel can image wavelenths as short as 3,000 Ångströms, or in correct notation, 3 x 10-7½
