American Woodcock demonstrates "distal rhynchokinesis," the ability to flex the end of its bill. This allows it to grab earthworms it encounters when probing in soil. Other shorebirds, including Dunlins & Sanderlings, can bend their bills in this way. 😃

Chicks don’t stay small. And like any other animal, they need food (not just chicken feed - veggies, insects, calcium supplements like cuttlebone), water, interaction, space to roam, and vet care. They will need these things even when they aren’t small and cute and your neighbors are complaining about your roosters’ crowing. Don’t get any pet unless you can care for them through every stage of their life.

I made this a couple years ago for a sadly now defunct publication called Pipe Wrench. I hope this piece helps spread more pigeon love.

Today’s bird(s) are these three killdeer!!
