Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Bali Myna
Q: Are bird feeders good for birds?
Bird feeders can be beneficial for birds by providing food, but poorly maintained feeders can lead to health issues and dependency.
The Gray Catbird
Q: Why do some birds walk rather than fly?
Sam explains that some birds can't fly and for those that can, it is often more efficient to walk or run instead of flying, depending on their physical capabilities and environmental situations.
The Merlin
Q: Why do birds have feathers over their ears?
Birds have feathers over their ears to help funnel sound into their inner ear and to keep dust and debris out, which actually enhances their hearing capabilities.
The Arctic Tern
Q: How do birds drink water?
Most birds dip their heads to fill their bills with water and then flick it back to swallow, while pigeons and doves can suck up water using their bills as straws.
The Arctic Tern
Q: What is a bird behavior commonly misinterpreted by people?
A common misconception is that pelicans can store fish in their bills for up to a week; however, their pouch acts like a fishing net instead.
