Birds



Birds are great subjects to study because they are all around us and are generally easy to see. However, many people know very little about birds and the simple joys they offer through their wonderful songs, beautiful plummage and thrilling personalities.

While hardly capable of instilling the Worldwide respect that birds deserve, this page system is designed to cultivate an increased awareness of birds; whether they are the common everyday birds which we take for granted or the rare sightings which we will remember for years to come.
