Tool-making crows have allowed us to see the first foundations of a technological breakthrough.

New Caledonian crows spontaneously make hooks out of plant material, using them to "fish" for grubs and spiders.

But I worked in a reptile house The Birdhouse was in the same building and I remember some of the birds. The turacos and the hoopoes stand out.

Murmurations of birds over Israel. That last one looks a little fishy. Is it real?

@coluber2001,
I know starlings fly in such patterns. I don't know if other kinds do as well.

I have no opinion. Birds are mysterious at times.

Close, but no cigar. It's a bat/bird signal for her husband to pick up some asparagus on his way home.

Way to take something rated G and turn it into an X kind of thing. And by "thing" I mean . . . never mind.

@roger,
What do you mean, "back to the birds"? Nobody's been flippin' the bird to any . . . Oooh. Heh, I thought you meant . . . My mistake.

But yeah, birds are great. Beautiful creatures.
