M
I'm glad that birds don't hiberate at the bottom of a lake. I don't want my food to feast on my poop since I use human toilets these days.
Whit if all chickens are dead
I love ornithology and it was my aim to become an ornithologist
Anyone like me here
There's no ORBITING SATELLITES! Let it go! 😎
Attaching coconuts to swallows
Can those birds can breath under water
wow the fuck
This had nothing to do with hibernation in a lake
Other birds like Concorde reaches twice a speed of sound.
I need to attach my phone to these birds; Pokémon go would get so much issues but I would get a lotta stuff
FYI: don't do that. Birds are beautiful creatures and should be treated as such.
This video was VERRY interesting! Ty!!!!!

The ironic thing is that it's quite rare to see birds with bands in Denmark.

And here we are, having these long distance flyers trapped in tiny cages. Sad.
Wow, this bird research took an interesting TURN.
My class leard about the guy who put the bands on the birds
YEA DENMARK!!!
I thought the great snipe snipes people from far away
Parrots are Red, Macaws are Blue, I just got clickbaited, and so did you!
I am a Danish guy
I was hoping there was a diving bird that went into caves that were only accessible by going through water…
Me during the video: "pff, i know about how far birds travel. not so crazy anymore for me." <.<
me after the video: "… what the holy fucking hell o.o"
Never mess with The Great Snipe

Don't clickbait.
