Birds, bird watching, photography, sketches, art, species... etc... anything on BIRDS... for all those who marvel at the flying creatures around them.... this is your community.... What is ornithology? Ornithology is the scientific study of birds Ornithologists study every aspect of bird life. Some ornithologists look at how birds live in their environment, while others look at how the parts of birds work together to make a bird. Some ornithologists focus on how birds find food, while others focus on how birds digest food. Some ornithologists research changes in populations of birds across whole continents; others study changes in blood cells in an individual bird. Ornithologsts sometimes study how birds evolved and what their ancestors looked like, and still others study how birds are changing in today's environment and how they might be affected by ecological change in the future. Ornithology is a broad field, and there is room for everyone.   | Photos | Sep 1, 2010 |
