EAGLE CAM! 🦅

This is a link to the live Eagle Cam that we watched some of in class today.

If you watch it on YouTube, you can find information about the birds underneath the video.

This is the video that we watched some of earlier – showing the hatching of the third egg.

 

Woodpeckers

Below is a video of a woodpecker hammering on a tree. This particular woodpecker is a Lineated Woodpecker that lives in South America. It looks very similar in size and colour to the Pileated Woodpecker that lives here in BC.

 

WARNING

In this next video a scientists is using the actual skull and tongue of a deceased woodpecker to demonstrate how the tongue wraps around the birds head. It’s fascinating but if you are a bit squeamish about these things, you may want to skip it.

This video shows a Pileated Woodpecker, a large and local bird, making a large hole in a tree.
