    Activity 1: I revisited the bird wall to write this post, and discovered one I hadn't clicked before, one that I immediate was drawn to because it looks like a sleek, all black Cardinal. The Phainopepla! I love their little mohawk. Activity 2: Three birds that I can classify into different groups from what I've seen in the wild would be the Mourning Dove, Green Heron, and Ring Billed Gull. Mourning doves fall under pigeons and doves, Green Herons under wading birds, and Ring Billed Gull with seabirds. Activity 3: I've recently been fascinated by White-Breasted Nuthatches. I love their behavior of skittering along trees parallel to the trunk. Very adorable birds! White-Breasted-Nuthatch-Images Image pulled from google search. But I often see them making this exact pose!

    Thank you so much for providing this course. I found the way the information was presented was very easily digestible and made this course fun to go through. Living in the northeast United States, I knew some hummingbirds migrated, but I had no idea how far some actually go! Also, I didn't know how iridescent feathers worked before this course. I can't wait to set up a nectar feeder and garden to encourage hummers to visit.

    Incredibly fascinating how hummingbirds use torpor while sleeping to conserve energy. I had no idea that was how they did it!
