Synopsis
You may think birds are over your head, and you're partly right. Many of them glide above you or sit perched in high places. But birds are all around you, even on the ground. How different bird species move, behave, and look depends on how they have adapted to their surroundings. Did you know that you can guess what a bird eats by the shape of its beak, or that wing shape depends on function? Now you can join scientists as they study the ways birds have adapted by looking back to the time when dinosaurs roamed our planet. You'll never look at our feathered friends the same way again after reading Discovery Channel's Birds.
