Really enjoy the lengths birds will go to just to avoid the UK.
The birds have taken Brexit very seriously
They didn't have a choice, their entry visas have been denied.
Except Bristol
The last preserve of white guy dreadlocks?
I'm annoyed that the greater white-fronted goose is in red, the white stork is in yellow and the lesser black-backed gull is in white.
This gives me the perfect chance to share a fun trivia fact! One of the best ways to link migration patterns were arrows carried by the birds from one area to another. As always, there’s a word for it in German - arrow stork. Even better is that the original specimen is one posted on this map; the white stork!
It was a fun fact until I clicked the link and realized that "arrows carried by the birds" are in fact arrows the birds have been shot with. Interesting history, thanks!
What is in northern Germany?
The „Wattenmeer“. During the low tide, there are huge areas with easy to reach food and plenty of areas for birds to rest in with few natural predators.
It has raptors but what about stegosauri
nothing for mallards or cranes? weird selection.
Also just listing raptors is basically worthless. There are about 40 species of raptors in europe, I guarantee they don't all follow that path. They should have done golden eagles, those are studied pretty well for migration.
Clever girls.
If I had wings I’d do the same damn thing
Now I wonder whether some of the different species that share the same route ever migrate together.
Short answer Yes. Long answer Yeeeeeeessss
I'm pretty sure the latter was the middle-length answer. You can do better!
what do you mean raptors why are there raptors
/s I'm guessing there is a bird called a raptor?
Also known as birds of prey or predatory birds.
raptors are a group name for all avian predators
Well, not all, just those that are directly related.
Holiday at Istanbul and antioch
I wonder how these change as the climate changes. The Sahara wasn't always desert, and might not be for long going into the future. Probably somebody's modeled it, I should look it up.
