Ask anyone to make a word association with "bird" and they'll probably say "fly." But birds move in many other and often surprising ways. They use their bodies to climb, dig, dance, swim, stalk, hop, toboggan, and more. To make these movements, their bodies have special adaptations. Features 20 birds from around the world: North America, Central America, South America, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, Antarctica, Southeast Asia, Eurasia, Eastern Asia. Introduces kids to familiar birds (mallard duck, common loon, ostrich, Aďlie penguin) and some that are new/unusual (kakapo, superb bird-of-paradise, phalarope, rainbow bee-eater) Amazing birds that move in surprising ways: - the rainbow bee-eater digs a tunnel for its nest - the long-eared owl twists its neck as much as 270 degrees to see better - the dipper walks on the bottom of streams looking for food - the Aďlie penguin toboggans on its belly to save energy - the phalarope spins to catch food Each bird's form of movement is described in brief, clear, accessible text and highlighted with a large heading Lively, entertaining and informative--the perfect tool for teachers to make science fun and interesting for young students. Ducks that dabble, red-crowned cranes that dance, mallee fowl that dig, blue-footed boobies that dive! Short, snappy text, solid information, and full-color illustrations with personality and pizzazz bring twenty fascinating birds to life."--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Kapolei Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 598.157 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 598.157 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList
