Pigeons are birds that live alongside humans on virtually every continent. Even in ancient times, humans domesticated pigeons, and they roamed with them throughout the world.

This bird is considered a symbol of spiritual purity, as well as peace, love and fidelity.

The kestrel is a bird belonging to the falcon order and is a distinct species. They inhabit virtually all of Eurasia except India. They do not inhabit tundra, mountainous, or steppe regions. Their favorite habitats are sparse forests with numerous clearings.

Our planet is home to many different species of birds. In the spring and summer, they are always busy with nesting and raising their young. There are also birds that raise their chicks in the bitter cold. Crossbills fall into this category, raising their young in extreme weather conditions. What kind of birds are these, and why are they such dedicated parents?

The hazel grouse is a well-known forest bird found throughout Eurasia. It is currently protected by the state and is listed on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

Birds are warm-blooded creatures. Their average body temperature is 41°C (106°F), meaning they can remain active in cold weather, provided they have sufficient food. Due to food shortages, many birds abandon their nests and migrate to warmer climates when the cold weather arrives. There, they will have ample food. One such migratory bird is the thrush, which we will discuss in this article.
