Feathers!

 

All birds have feathers and birds are the only animals that do!

 

Feathers do many jobs for birds.  Soft down keeps them warm, wing feathers allow flight and tail feathers are used for steering.

 

The color of the feathers can be used to hide the bird or to help the bird find a boyfriend or a girlfriend!

 

Do you know what makes a bird different from other animal?

All birds reproduce by laying eggs with hard shells, and most build nests to help protect the eggs from weather and predators. Adult birds almost always sit on the eggs to keep them warm until they hatch.

Birds' Reproduction.

Problem Trigger

There is an unusual bird that escaped from the laboratory in Bird Park a few days ago. This bird can both run and fly. It can camouflage very well. It eats fruits and seeds. 

 

Bird Park appeals to school to design and display a ‘Lost’ poster for the unusual bird which has escaped from its laboratory.
