Synopsis
When a bee-eater bird catches a bee, it rubs the bee against the branch to tear out the stinger before eating the menacing meal. Strange Birds features behaviors that seems "strange" to people but that often help birds in staying alive including: - the cuckoo who gets out of raising its own chicks by laying its eggs in the nests of other birds - the dipper that can walk underwater and use its wings to swim - the cassowary which can grow to be 5 feet (1.6 m) tall - the tiny honey guide who leads other animals to beehives so they can eat the wax after the animal has broken it openBook Details
