Birds

This morning the intranet informed me that there is a behind the scenes special about the Natural History Museum's Ornithology department on the BBC website. Videos include information about penguins, warblers, the dodo and Darwin's pigeons.

It was a fantastic and fascinating.
What I really liked about it was that it didn't concentrate only on the cute stuff but for example also showed the viciousness of the baboons.
Another interesting revelation was that the voicebox of some of the lesser monkeys is actually closer to ours than that of chimps.
Tool use FTW, too.

I loved the liar monkeys too.

It proved that they can imagine things like we can.

"SNAKE!"

Yeah it's weird that chimps have no system of (obvious) communication like monkeys and people.

Yeah, they have to be TAUGHT sign language.
