One day a man named Jerry was neatly organizing his and his wife Diane’s bedroom. Hours later as Jerry was cleaning the room he heard an unusually loud noise which frightened him. Minutes after he heard the noise he heard it again and again but each time he heard it, it came from a different direction. First it was the window, then the roof, and finally from the lower area of the house. After the sound stopped Jerry proceeded to the last known direction of the noise which was in the downstairs area
The main goal of the project was to take measurements and band un-banded Boreal and Northern Saw-whet Owls at the Beaverhill Bird Observatory (BBO) located near Tofield. The bands are lightweight and contain a 9-digit number that is unique to North America. They are placed around the leg of the bird. Banding owls is an incredible experience that is conducted to keep an eye on owl populations. In addition, repetitive banding efforts allow owl populations to be compared (Grigg 1991).

projects was the Tucson Bird Counting. In 2001, a study to monitor the Tucson Bird Counting (TBC) was held. This project was carried by groups citizen scientist who were volunteers. The purpose of this study was to monitor the Tucson Bird Count throughout the area of Arizona. This project was to establish the relationship between the birds and urban environments.

you can watch and feed over one hundred types of colorful, tropical birds. My parents thought it would be an amusing experience. I was one inch short of the height limit, but they let me in anyway. Before I entered the exhibit, a worker handed me a small cup of nectar, and my dad turned his camcorder on, I was ready to go! I felt super confident wearing my bright sparkly pink headband. As soon as I entered the cage all of the birds

Well robins do that all the time too says a study from “The Wilson Journal of Ornithology.” The study looked how similar or unique robin’s songs were to their peers and raised the very interesting question do robins make up there own songs or is it copied from other robins in their community? Robins sing for a number of reasons. The two main reasons are to
1. Explain why some bird types would survive and reproduce more on certain islands. Some bird types would survive and reproduce more on certain islands because it depends on the climate and the environment. Also, it depends on the types of beaks that birds have and the food that is available in that Island. In other words, birds can only survive and reproduce more if they are adapted to that environment like the climate in that island and their specific type of food/habitat they need to survive.
Distinctive features: Once they’ve reached adulthood, male sea otters weigh approximately 30 kilograms and reach a length of about 135 centimeters, while adult females typically weigh about 20 kilograms and reach a length of about 125 centimeters (Anonymous 2015). All sea otters have dense brown or golden brown fur. Sea otters are most often seen floating on their backs and either sleeping, grooming, or feeding. Grooming is necessary to keep their fur clean and to trap air bubbles for insulation
For this lesson students created bird feeders out of simple materials. Before the activity started, I had to make a change considering two students were allergic to peanut butter honey was used instead. This change was simple and did not affect the overall activity. When the activity was introduced I had a premade bird feeder so the students can see what it could look like. The toilet paper rolls had the holes cut out of them before hand and in order to make the stringer process a little easier for
Crowfeather was sitting next to Nightcloud. She was the only person that really tolerated him throughout the whole post-Leafpool fiasco. His internal moping over Leafpool, his external moping over the lack of acceptance by his Clan. This lack of acceptance just made him work harder for the acceptance of his Clan. “Crowfeather?” “Yeah?” He turned to look at her. “Do you want to be mates with me?” She sounded desperate, a plea in her eyes. He glanced down. “Give me a moment, please. This is a
