The Worlds Laziest Bird.

The angel tern is one of the worlds laziest birds. They are white in color, with black eyes and a black bill. These seabirds inhabit islands near the equator and part of the southern hemisphere. We think that this is bird is one of the laziest birds on the planet because it refuses to do any hard work to take care of it’s young. For one thing, this bird does not build a nest, but lays it’s egg on a tree branch, and sits on it to keep it balanced.
How lazy is that? They don’t even make or look for a comfortable home for there young. If that isn’t idol enough, they don’t even bother making it easier for their young to chew. They just give them whole fish. Imagine a young chick trying to gulp down a whole fish. In flight, this birds wings look almost translucent at the egde. A great place to see these birds close up, is on Lord Howe island, off the east coast of Australia.

Pretty Bird, Hideous Home.-The Red and Yellow Barbet

      This is the Red and Yellow Barbet. this is bird is one of the most distinctive barbets of them all. It has a very vibrant head pattern and has spots on it's wings, like white drops of paint on a black canvas. It's tail feathers are stripes of black and white. It's chest and underparts are a lemonade yellow, and a stripe crosses it's chest with a pattern similar to that of its wings.


"Wata you lookin' at!?"

This doesn't taste anywhere as good as the hamburger I snagged from that teenaged girl's hands!
 

There diet includes fruit, seeds, insects, lizards, and even small birds and there eggs. They also take advantage of trash cans. This bird also lays it's eggs in an unusualy strange home. A termite mound. Red and Yellow Barbets group together during the mating season. The dominant male mates with one female, and the rest of the birds act as slaves, giving the couple food, and sometimes digging the hole in the termite mound. They're practically slaves! Aside from that, We think that this is a really cool bird.

Oh my gosh, that duck has TEETH!

       Imagine yourself as a fish. You have decided to take a morning swim through the lake. You are feeling pretty good, and you're minding you own buissiness. Little do you know that a viscious razor toothed duck named Vlad  has decided to have you and your little fishy friends for breakfast! You swim right into the serated mouth of death. In other words, the mouth of Vlad. Pain swallows your body, and black death engulfes your soul. You struggle to hold on to dear life, but you are forced down it's gulet, never to see the light of day again. You have been eaten by the not so freindly Vlad... he is a Common Merganser.

You and Vlad, together forever!

Vlad's assult weapon.

       Common Mergansers such as Vlad or his brother Phill (who ate the rest of your family), are a special kind of duck with a serated bill, which gives it the appearence of having teeth. They have a long thin bill and black patches of feathers on their back. The male has a greenhead. The female has an orange-brown head that spikes out in the back  As a snack they eat poor defenseles fishies like yourself. They live in North America, Asia, and Europe. They have "fins" on their feet that help them swim in lakes to eat fish. So, if you have thought about being a fish, you might want to rethink that.
