Some important features about
birds:
Some important features about
birds:
Birds are vertebrates with feathers.
They resemble other vertebrates (mammal,
reptiles, amphibians and fish) in most
major aspects of architecture, bodily,
organization, and function. In birds,
however, the tail is reduced to a single
bony stub, called the pygostyle.
Most distinctive of all, birds forelimbs have
been strongly modified to form wings.
Bird Structure
Other vertebrate groups have some members that
can fly, but only among birds is flight common to
virtually all. In their general anatomy, birds most
nearly resemble reptiles, but like mammals, they
are warm-blooded. Birds have extraordinarily
acute eyesight and exceptional hearing, but their
olfactory sense is much less acute than most
mammals. Their primary identifying (and
diagnostic) feature is that the are only animals
with feathers.
Flight and Feathers
One striking characteristic of birds
compared to many other animal groups is
their relative uniformity. Birds are indeed
extraordinarily diverse in their
characteristics of their plumage – color,
pattern and various ‘add-ons’ such as
plumes, crests, ruffs and tassels. But
much of this diversity fades away at a
structural level.
Uniformity
The forelimbs are specially modified to form
wings; the bones of the wrist, hand, and fingers
are fused together so that only the second digit
or finger is visible.
The wings are powered by relatively enormous
muscles (totaling one quarter to one third of the
total body mass of some birds), most of which
are attached to a deep keel-shaped structure
jutting from the front of the sternum or breast
bone.
Anatomy and Physiology
The wings support the entire
body weight in the air, but
the hind limbs support the
entire weight on the ground.
The shape and structure of the bill varies
considerably among birds and these
characteristics reveal the fair reliability
the owner’s usual diet and way of life.
This is partly because birds cannot chew,
so the bill functions as the prime food
handling device.
The bill
Most seed-eating birds have deep, short,
conical bills, designed to function like a
nut–cracker. Fish-eating birds, such as
Herons (ardeidae) and Anhingas
(anhingidae), often have long, pointed,
dagger-like bills for spearing prey.
Carnivorous birds, such as hawks and
eagles (accipitridae), have deep, powerful,
sharply hooked bills for tearing flesh.
Bill variations
The function of teeth is largely taken over
by a muscular, pouch-like organ called the
gizzard. The gizzard is most strongly
developed in seed-eating birds, but rather
less so in those that leave mainly on
insects, nectar or the flesh of other
vertebrates.
The gizzard
Like the mammalian heart, the bird’s heart
is in essence a double-action pump with
four chambers, two of which regulate the
flow of blood to the lungs, while the other
pair recovers it from the lungs and
distributes the oxygenated through the
arterial system to all parts of the body.
The heart
The system of air-sacs can be visualized
as a posterior set and a forward set, with
the lungs suspended between them in
such a way that air flows through he
lungs (not in – and – out as in mammals)
as it circulates throughout the air-sac
system.
The lungs
This means that the process of extracting
Carbon dioxide from the blood and
recharging it with oxygen is continuous,
rather than cyclical, and is considerably
more efficient than in mammalian lungs –
a bird’s lung is considerably smaller in
relation to its total body weight than a
mammal’s lung, despite the greater
oxygenation depends imposed by flight.
Birds tend to target foods resources for
high nutritional value and speedy
digestion. Though there are expectations,
the diet of most birds is made up f small
animals (including fish), insects, fruits,
seeds, or nectar or a combination of
these, e.g. many songbirds alternate
between an insect diet in summer and a
seed diet in winter.
Diet
Feathers are unique to birds. Feathers emerge from follicles deeply embedded in the skin, and many are equipped with unstriated muscles that allow some degree of movement under the bird’s control. Feathers are made almost entirely of keratin, the same substance from which horse’s hooves, tiger’s claws and human hair and fingernails are constructed. Their uniqueness lies more in their structure than their composition.
Feather Structure
Like a cat grooming its fur, a healthy bird
spends as much time preening. The bird
takes each of its feathers in turn and uses
it bill to nibble the length of the feather.
This grooming action serves to reattach
all the hooklets that may have become
detached since the last preening session.
Preening
Eventually feathers wear out, and they
can no longer perform their chief
functions of facilitating flight and
insulation. They are then shed and
replaced with new ones. The process of
shedding old, worn, or damaged feathers
is referred to as molt.
Molt
The molt involves two distinctly
separate event; the shedding of the old
feather and the growth of the new one in
its place. Normally the molt is a rigidly
structured process as least as far as it
involves the flight feathers, and often
other tracts as well.
Gender is third common factor. Among
birds, males frequently wear a plumage
that differs conspicuously from that of
females. Such differences usually apply
only to adult birds. However, sometime
the sexes are noticeably different even
among immature or juveniles, and there
are even cases where juveniles differ in
ways that are not evident in adults.
Gender
More than most animals, birds use
sound as a means of interacting with
others of their own species and, in
some cases with other species.
Many birds produce sound by a wide
variety of purely mechanical means.
Mechanical bird sounds
In general, songs are those sounds used
during the breeding season and involved
with either courtship or the defense of
territory. Songs are usually uttered by
males, but in some species it is the
female that sings, and in many species
both sexes sing, either independently or
in the form of duets or choruses.
Vocal bird sounds
Song has two chief functions: to
proclaim territory and repel rivals,
and to attract potential males.
The two functions often overlap, and
no generalizations are possible even
among closely related species.
Functions of bird song
Results gained in investigations
suggest that mimicry in birds may
have arisen because borrowing a
sound from his surroundings could
be the simplest way for a male
songbird to increase the complexity
of his song to attract a mate.
Mimicry
For birds, territory is an area where the occupant challenges and attempts to evict all trespassers of the same species. In songbirds territorial boundaries are often marked by perches from which the occupant sings to announce to neighbors that the territory is taken and any trespasser risks a fight. Sometimes special displays and other behaviors are used instead. Normally it the male who establishes and maintains a territory, but not always.
Territory
Many birds establish territories to
secure sole rights to single
resources such as food or a
preferred roosting site.
Because the boundaries of territories
must be continuously patrolled to
ensure their security, true territories in
birds are seldom larger than a few
hectares, and often much less. Beyond
a certain point, the time and energy
cost of patrolling a territory’s
boundaries exceeds the value of the
resource defended.
Some predatory birds, such as many
hawks, extent the concept of territory
to include one of ‘home range’.
The nuclear family situation, in which a
single mature male forms a pair – bond
with a single mature female during the
rearing of a single brood of offspring, is
common to 90% of all birds. Polygyny
(males with multiple mates) and polyandry
(females with multiple mates) are also
widespread among birds.
Courtship
Many bird species habitually form pairs that last for life, while others trade partners after every brood, and some form no pair bonds at all. Where no pair bond is formed, it is usual for the females to visit males at special display grounds (which may be solitary or communal), where copulation occurs. The female leaves to build a nest, lay her eggs and rear her young without further involvement by the male parent.
A notable example of the solitary display ground is in the case of the bowerbird (Ptilonorhynchidae). Mature males build and decorate large structures (bowers) on the ground for the sole purpose enticing females to mate. Once established, such bowers are almost constantly maintained and refurbished throughout the life of the owner. Sometimes display grounds are communal, in which case they are generally referred to as leks.
Songs are used by many birds to
announce their territories, repel rivals, and
advertise for mates. These are reinforced,
supplemented, or replaced by a wide
range of visual displays. These range from
simple presentations of particular
plumage features, as when a European
Robin Erithacus rubecula fluffs out its
breast in an attempt to intimidate a rival,
to the elaborate courtship performances
involving spectacular or brightly colored
plumes or similar devices.
Demand precise habitat
requirements; their distribution is
strongly influenced by patterns of
plant diversity, which in turn are
influenced by climactic factors such
as temperature and rainfall.
Habitat
Habitat ranges from desert to grassland to
woodland and rain forest e.g. larks and
pipits are common to desert and
grasslands; towcans and birds of paradise
have no desert inhabiting members;
pigeons and doves (columbidae) are
universally seen in almost faunal regions.

Hawk
A Bird of prey used in falconry, any
diurnal bird of prey of the family
(Accipitridae).
Hawk – eye is a keen sighted.
BIRDS OF PREY
Any diurnal bird of prey in falconry belonging to the genus – Falco characterized by long pointed wings.
FalconerA person who breeds , keeps and trains falcon or other birds of prey, one who hunts with such birds, a follower of sport on falconry.
Falcon
BIRDS OF PREY
Falconry
The breeding, keeping and training of the
falcons or the other birds of prey.
The sport or practice of hunting using
such birds.
BIRDS OF PREY
Buteo jamaicensis(Red –Tailed hawk)
The term Hawk is often applied to other
birds in the family Accipitridae (such as
kites, buzzard, harriers and sometimes is
extended to include certain members of the
family Falconidae (falcons and caracaras).
The majority of hawks are more useful to
humans than harmful, but thee is still
widespread prejudice against them.
RED TAILED HAWK
The Buteos, also called Buzzard hawks, are broad winged,Wide Tailed, Soaring Raptors found In The New World, Eurasia and Africa. The red- tailed (Buteo jamaicensis, see photograph), the most common North American species, is about 60 cm long, varying in colour but generally brownish and somewhat lighter below with a rufous- colour tail.
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
This beneficial hunter preys mainly on rod but it also catches other small mammals as well as various birds, reptiles (including rattlesnakes and copperheads), amphibians, and even insects.There is sexual dimorphism in size females are 25% larger than the males.The eye colour of the Hawk changes from yellowish gray when immature to dark brown in adults.
Red-tailed hawk feed on a wide variety of
prey, using their powerful claws as
weapons. 80- 85% of their diet consists of
small rodents. Male red-winged blackbirds
are often eaten because of their open
visibility when guarding their nests.
FOOD HABITS
Red- tails usually begin breeding when they are
three years old. Red- tails tend to be
monogamous, only finding a mew mate when
theirs dies. A sure sign of breeding in the spring
is that the male and female perch in the same tree
to hunt. During courtship the birds soar near each
other in circles with flights lasting 10 minutes or
more. Mating usually takes place following this.
One to five eggs are laid around the first week of
April. Both parents help to incubate the eggs
Reproduction
Red-tailed pairs will remain together for
years in the same territories. The birds are
very territorial. The female is usually the
more aggressive partner around the nest
itself, whereas the male is more
aggressive when it comes to the territory
boundaries. The red- tailed has a serial of
aerial behaviors.
BEHAVIOUR
The red tail hawk builds its nest at the edge
of a Forest in the large trees surrounded by
open areas. Their main territory consists of
large woodlots surrounded by open fields
and pastures for foraging.
HABITAT
Red- tails are very susceptible to albinoism
Red- tails will often use power lines as perches.
The red- tail is often the victim of car accidents, shooting and steel traps
Red- tails are a sign of good luck in the Mescalero Apache tradition.

Columba pal
(Dove)
The evolution of the crop has been of vital importance to the pigeon. This bilobed diverticulum (a Blind Pouch) of the oesophagus, located just posterior to the buccal cavity serves as a storage organ. Subsisting for the most part on seeds, buds, leaves, and fruits, form of protein content and nutritive value, pigeons must consume large quantities during each feeding day. The ability to store food has enabled some pigeon to be represented among the small list of birds - geese and certain galliform birds etc.
GENERAL HABITS
When feeding on the ground, a pigeon must be looking downwards much of the time and therefore is vulnerable to predators such as foxes.
Many species possesses signal marks that becomes prominent in sudden flight, just as some rabbits display the white under parts of the tail.
BEHAVIOR
A consequence of feeding in a flock is that
differences in individual attributes are more
readily manifested, and this finds expression
strongly developed social hierarchy (peck
order). In competitive situations submissive
individuals are frequently supplanted by more
dominant individuals, and efforts to avoid
conflicts result in their getting less food.
There is no evidence that social
behavior has evolved as a mechanism
where populations can achieve self
regulation of their numbers, as has
sometimes been suggested.
In most pigeons, a male in reproductive condition acquires a territory which it proclaims with an advertisement call, usually a variant typical pigeon “coo” sound. Intrusion from other pigeons is prevented, at first by threat displays involving sleeking the plum, stretching the head forward, and partially raising the wings. If the displays of aggressiveness are ineffective the male then attacks intruder, pecking at the opponent and delivering sharp blows with carpel joint of the wing. Females behaving submissively are gracefully tolerated, particularly by unpaired males.
A sexually mature male typically approaches a submissive member of the same species with the bowing display (in most pigeons this occur within a previously acquired territory, but not invariably). Bowing is primarily an aggressive display, involving tendencies to advance and attack and to mount and copulate. It is usually accompanied by vocalization – the bow call.Most pigeons are multibrooded and have long breeding seasons.

Corvus corax
(Raven)
North American raven is considered
by ornithologists to be the most
intelligent of all the birds. There have
been countless legends about raven
especially it being responsible for
creating the world. Ravens have a
colorful personality and an
idiosyncratic behavior.
Ravens share a very special
relationship with wolves: the
raven’s claw alerts the wolf of its
prey. The wolf then kills the prey
and raven comes for its share.
They mutually celebrate by
singing.

Falcon peregrinus
(Peregrine falcon)
Peregrine falcon is also
known as duck hawk. It is a
bird of prey belonging to the
family Falconidae.
Bluish gray above with under parts white
to yellow with black barring, peregrines
range about 13 to 19 inches long. They
are strong and fast. They fly high and
dive at tremendous speed and killing by
impact. The prey include ducks and
shorebirds.
Peregrines inhabit rocky open
country near water where birds are
plentiful. The usual nest is a mere
scrape on a high cliff. The clutch is
two to four reddish brown eggs. The
young fledge in five or six weeks.

Haliaeetus
leucocephalus
(Bald eagle)
The bald eagle is in the family of
sea eagles (Haliaeetus), found only
in North America. It is one of only
three white headed species
(Leucocephalus), which is the
largest species of eagle in the
world.
Like all birds, they have a fast,
warm metabolism and must eat a
tremendous amount to survive.
Primarily a scavenger, the bald
eagle hunts only when there is no
easier available source of food. The
favorite prey among coastal eagles
is fish, especially salmon.
The bald eagle is not strictly a
migratory species. Some
individuals stay in the same area
year round, or migrate towards
seasonal food sources. They don't
necessarily migrate in groups.

Larus argentatus
(sea-gull)
The obvious characteristics of the sea-gulls
are their constant hunger, their hoarse voice
and their equal sharing of the child care
between female and male birds. The fact that
sea-gulls also have other abilities apart from
eating, surviving and picking at one another is
very well documented in the visionary book
and film of Richard Bach ‘Jonathan Livingston
Sea-gull’.
Some of the
remarkable
symptoms are:
• A lot joy of life.
• More lightness and happiness.
• More energy and motivation.
• Clarity of thoughts. I can see clearly now,
I am realizing the meaning. The universe
helps me to go my way.
• New ideas that I want to put into
action immediately.
• Feeling like being banished.
• Vertigo with heavy sweat at night.
• Vertigo when moving the head.
• Oedema of the lower eyelids after waking
up.
• Dryness of eyes, a little as if glued,
amelioration outside.
• Fine perception, specially hearing; good
discrimination of various sounds.
• Feeling of soreness in the throat.
• A lot of hunger; hunger, hunger, “attacks of
eating”; very hungry, especially in the
evening; I could eat constantly.
• Ravenous hunger, especially for sweets.
• For sometime I have no brakes concerning
eating, I could eat constantly, regardless
what kind of food.
• More sexual energy.
• Better sexuality. More lust and
activity from my part.
• Lust to be sexually together with my
husband. I enjoy the longing.
• Dry cough with stitching in the lungs.• Strong tensions between the shoulder-blades
with twinging pain.• Being awake late in the evening.• I don’t know whether I sleep or dream or think
I am dreaming.• I awake consciously from a dream-space. I
feel a connection to the universe and to
eternity by living in this space. I feel that I
want to care and look for this space again.
• Dreams of flying.
• Dreams of places located high up.
• Dreams of water and of ocean,
• Dreams of family and friends.
• Dreams of little children.
• General feeling of total exhaustion.
• More thirst than usual.
Macaw
Psittacinae (family Psittacidae)
Macaws are the most colorful of large
parrots. Macaws eat much fruit and
also crack nuts open with their
extremely powerful beaks, using their
blunt tongues to extract the nut meat.
They are bare faced and may blush
when excited.
Some of the
important
symptoms of
Macaw are:
Tension between INDIVIDUALITY AND THE
GROUP Tension between the sense of self
and the need for expression
Expression of what is really oneself versus
being an integral part of family and society
Individuation. Reconciliation. Old souls.
It is caught in social duties and
obligations. I’m caught this way,but I
need to be another way. This is fairly

Vultur gryphus
(Condor)
Vultur (family Cathartidae) – the
Andean condor, Vultur
gryphus, and the California
condor, Gymnogyps
californianus. They are two
largest flying birds, each about
130 cm long and 10 kg in
weight. They breed every other
year, laying a single egg per
pair, greenish or bluish in
color, about 10 cm long.
The trituration is made from
an Andean condor feather.
The condor is inseparably connected to
South America and Andes. These giant
vultures are habitual long distance
travelers, and often fly hundreds of
miles on one day. It plays an important
mythological and cultural role among
the native people of South America.
Condors are true kings among the
birds. They are unique and amazing in
may ways: their wingspread, their
flying strength and height, the length
of their brooding period, the time until
their sexual maturity and their life
span are rarely surpassed by any
other bird.
The condor feeds almost entirely on
carrion (dead animals). They have
excellent eyesight which enables
them to spy from great heights.
Their sense of smell is supposedly
relatively weak.
Condors engage in lasting
partnerships. The seem calm and
noble, sociable while feeding,
and rather shy in the wild.
The condor represents:
• Grandeur
• Expansion
• Success
• Stability
• Freedom
6. Pride
7. Dignity
8. Overview
9. Far reaching connections and
is a bridge to the hereafter
vTHEMES FROM THE PROVING:
• Relationships of two worlds:
The world of dead and the world of living.
From the psychological point of view, dead
people represent the unconscious mind, while
the living people represent conscious mind.
• Strong energy for creativity,
freedom and to realize one’s
own idea and goal.
• Being industrious with excitement:1. Increased joy
2. No trace of boredom
3. Great contentment
4. Much enthusiasm
• Lucid dreaming:I dreamt of naked and completely transparent
waterman looking very beautiful. He talked to me
and offered his help. He said I should let it go. I
saw myself from the perspective of a bungee
jumper. No solid ground just depth was beneath
me. Looking down made me feel nauseous and
uncomfortable. I gradually went down deeper and
deeper with an uncreditable speed. Slowly I felt
the fall was relaxing and joyful instead of
frightening.
• Since condor feeds on carrion, he is in
constant connection with death and
after world. The condor transforms the
death into life by eating it. The principle
of transformation puts him between the
world of the living and the world of the
death.
