British birds & their eggs :. London :W. & R. Chambers,1909.. biodiversitylibrary.org/page/14409391
While most people can barely watch horror films like Paranormal Activity without going into a full-blown breakdown, aka putting all the lights on in the house and not being able to sleep for days straight, some people like the thrill of it. They sleep like babies, never flinch and have the guts for the scariest things.

BIRD meaning: 1 : an animal that has wings and is covered with feathers; 2 : person
The secretary bird (Sagittarius Serpentarius) is a large raptor related to hawks and eagles. It got this name because of its quill-like crests on the back of its head that resemble 18th-century clerks with pens tucked into their wigs. This bird has another distinctive feature. Eyelashes. Long, prominent eyelashes that makeup models would kill for.

via There's nothing sweeter, is there? I have house wrens nesting in one of my Williamsburg bird bottles on the back of the house and blue birds nesting in the blue bird box. I love the chitter chatter of the wrens. The bluebirds are very quiet. I planted two limelight hydrangea a few days ago, one in the back and one in the front. If they are half as good as they are supposed to be, I'll be happy. I got a big pot at a local garden center for a good price and when I got it home, it turned out to be two plants growing very close together. I was thrilled I was able to separate them. Read about this variety here.

These guys like tropical and subtropical climates. They get bigger than most other eagles. This particular one, a male, weighs about 10 pounds. He's a growing boy, and already dwarfs your typical American bald eagle national icon thing. He swallows rats whole at feeding time. That's the keeper's forearm he's sitting on with those BIG ASS talons. These guys were practically extinct but they've been bred and released into the wild, and now they're making a comeback. L.A.

Call ‘em birds, or birbs, or orbs. Give ‘em names. But no one can take that smolness and birbness away. Yep, move over, doggos and cattos, funny pics of feathered creatures are a new internet craze that we can’t get enough of.
O secretário é um pássaro muito interessante. Apesar da aparência enganadora e do nome estranho, ele é na verdade uma ave de rapina parente dos falcões e águias

It is very common nowadays that people give their birds too much food. This is more the case with parrot species than it is with other species of birds but it is the same principle that applies. T…
