The Sarus Crane is the tallest flying bird in the world. Its height reaches up to 1.8 m (5ft 11in). The wingspan can reach up to 2.3m (7ft 7in). It is a large non-migratory crane found in parts of the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia and Australia. The Sarus Crane is a resident breeder in lowland…
It is a common myth that birds give milk, but no species of bird actually does. The myth may also have been influenced by the fact that many birds produce crop milk, a secretion from their crops used to feed their young. Crop milk is produced by some species of pigeons and doves. It is…
The flamingo has the longest lifespan of any bird on this list. In fact, the average flamingo lives for about 80 years! Flamingos are able to live so long because they spend their first 20 years in quiet seclusion (as opposed to allowing themselves to be distracted by bright colors and cute songs), and because…
We’ve been getting a lot of questions about 5G and whether it’s dangerous to birds. The short answer is no, and here’s why. Birds are not particularly sensitive to radio-frequency radiation, but both birds and insects rely heavily on the Earth’s magnetic field for navigation. It is possible that 5G could interfere with the Earth’s…
One of the most common questions that comes up when discussing birds is “Why can’t chickens fly?” The answer is simple: They’re too heavy. Chickens can’t fly because their wing muscles aren’t strong enough. Chickens were bred from wild birds that could fly and still have remnants of the wing muscles, but they are not…
The bird with the longest feathers is the saddle-billed stork which has feathers that can be up to 4 feet long. These birds are native to Africa, and have a black bill that looks like its wearing a saddle. The saddle-billed stork is an impressive wading bird that stands around 37 inches tall. Males and…
Bald eagles are not exactly known for their speed, but they are very strong and capable of carrying prey twice their size. That’s good, because the average bald eagle is about 10 pounds, while the average human baby is closer to 10,000 grams. We can do some math to figure out if a bald eagle…
When baby pigeons are between 3 and 5 days old, they are still in the nest. The female pigeon sits on the eggs until they hatch, and then she and her mate take turns sitting on the babies to keep them warm. The parents take turns feeding the babies pigeon milk (a liquid substance produced…
The answer to this question is a bit of a mystery. There are many species of penguins, and only one of them is native to the continent of Africa. The rest of them are either found in Antarctica or on islands in the southern part of the world. Currently, there’s no evidence that we could…
Birds can be very dangerous, in some cases. In the US, there are an estimated 4.5 million bird strikes every year, which have caused over 200 human fatalities since 1988. On the face of it, a bird attack sounds like a joke. They’re small, they’re feathery and most of them are harmless to humans. But…
