Coot trying to make nest in impossible place
Not all Coots are masters of nest building. Some try vaguely to gather a few twigs together in an impossibly exposed place on the edge of the lake, and give up after a couple of days.

Come fly with me
Look up to the sky and you might see birds flying in a 'V' shape. This pattern is thought to give the birds behind an aerodynamic advantage. Now it seems birds really do fly with a little flap from their friends.
In this Nature Video, we see how researchers at the UK's Royal Veterinary College put data loggers on ibises to record their position, speed and wing flaps when they migrated. The ibises position themselves within the V so that they benefit from the flow of air created by the bird in front. They carefully time their wing flaps with their flock mates', to get an extra lift when flying high.

Braeben GC 17th Hole and the Tres Amigos
June 2014 - A fun sunny day at a Links style course called Braeben GC in Mississauga, Ontario. It's about 45 minutes from Newmarket on a Saturday without traffic and maybe 2 hours during rush hour. The skyline is all downtown Mississauga and the course was built after they have used up all of the 200 acres of dumpsite. So they covered all their mountain of trash with a few feet of topsoil and put a links style golf course overlooking all the neighbourhood houses.

Rhea Who Ran Wild On Golf Course Gets Taken To New Home

ID: 1589634
A 6ft rhea dubbed Linford after running wild on a prestigious golf course has been captured and taken to a new home – where zookeepers have discovered he could actually be a GIRL called Linda.
The ostrich-like flightless bird, named after Linford Christie because of his ability to reach speeds of up to 40mph, took up residence at Evesham Golf Club in Evesham, Worcs, last October after escaping from his owner’s home in nearby Harvington and travelling five miles by road.
Green staff only became aware of Linford’s new home when they spotted his unusual footprints in the bunkers and though many attempted to catch the bird, no one had succeeded.
But after the 25-week-old feathered friend started chasing golfers, staff made the decision to catch Linford once and for all by luring him into a pen with fruit before rehoming him at Noah’s Ark Zoo in Wraxall, Bristol.

Birds | Educational Video for Kids
▶ SUBSCRIBE HAPPY LEARNING!
Educational Videos and songs for Kids. In this video we’re going to learn about the birds.
They are so diverse, and there are so many colors and shapes, it's fun to learn about them. For example, this tiny little hummingbird doesn’t look anything like this huge ostrich. And these penguins don’t look much like this peacock with its large fan-shaped tail. Well, they may not look alike, but they’re all birds, and have many things in common.
Birds are oviparous... which as you know, means that they reproduce by laying eggs. The females lay the eggs in nests, in the rocks... or on the ground... And with the heat of their bodies, they incubate the eggs until the little chicks hatch.
Birds don’t have teeth, they have beaks or bills... And these can be very different, depending on what that species of bird feeds on.
They breathe with their lungs, that are connected to... bags full of air... called air sacs... and these help birds to fly. Also, nature, which is very clever, has made their bones hollow, so they weigh very little, and because of this it’s much easier for them to fly.
The skin of birds is covered with feathers: these protect them from the cold and heat. Birds have four limbs, the back ones are legs... and the front ones are wings. Together, the wings and feathers are essential for them to be able to fly... and in some cases... so they can swim.
Birds are terrestrial and most of them can fly. Can you think of any birds that can’t fly? That’s right!!! Penguins and ostriches are two species of birds that cannot fly.
Birds have four types of feathers: those that cover the whole body; flight feathers in the wings that help them to fly; down feathers, which cover the chest and belly and maintain the body at a constant temperature; and tail feathers that help guide the birds’ body like a rudder on a boat.
Birds can be classified into several groups, according to what they eat: herbivores feed on plants and grasses – their beaks are short and strong, and can crush seeds and grains. When they only eat grains, they are called granivores.
Carnivorous birds hunt and eat other animals, using their strong, curved beaks. Within the group of carnivores there are insectivores, that only eat insects, and piscivores that only feed on fish. These birds have pointed beaks that are long and sharp to help them catch the fish. Remember - birds that eat fish are called piscivorous.
The last group - omnivorous birds - includes pigeons and hens, and they eat almost anything.
So remember: birds are oviparous, which means they reproduce by laying eggs; their mouths are beaks or bills and they breathe with their lungs; their skin is covered with feathers; and depending on the food they eat, they can be herbivorous... carnivorous... or omnivorous.
So, now you know a lot more about birds.
Goodbye, everybody, and don’t forget to subscribe to Happy Learning!!!
