When a chicken roosts it climbs up to a level higher than the ground such as a shelf or bar about three feet off the ground. Chickens feel safe while roosting and this is instinctual since birds in the wild will settle in branches when it gets dark to be safer from ground predators.

In this sentence what does this mean 'The cormorants roosted on a tall rock'?

A "cormorant" is a type of diving seabird. When birds get ready to sleep for the night they usually find a place to perch. This is called a "roost" and the act of going to this perch is called "roosting". So the sentence "The cormorants roosted on a tall rock" means that the Cormorant seabirds went to a tall rock to sleep for the night.

How many pterodactyls lived in a group?

Pterodactyls, specifically the species Pterodactylus, are believed to have lived in groups, often referred to as colonies. Estimates suggest that these colonies could consist of dozens to potentially hundreds of individuals, especially during breeding seasons. Fossil evidence indicates that they may have roosted together in large numbers, similar to modern-day seabirds. However, the exact number of individuals in a group can vary based on species and environmental factors.
