Picture at right is pixellated

[edit]

Need a better picture at right in the taxobox. The one there at the moment (October 2005) is pixellating at the size it is displaying at. 194.200.237.219 16:01, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Misc

[edit]

I saw this bird in the lake next to my house. I am so excited. GJ in SC. 9 Sept 2007

sorry I don't know the way to structure my comment but Im really keen to find out about the devil birds song. Dick Dawkins claimed that it sounds like the Satan in his book the God delusion. Is this true? I couldn't find anything on youtube with the bird song. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.22.70.250 (talk) 01:31, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiproject Central america?

[edit]

I don't think this needs to be under wikiproject central america just because its part of their range. they decided to remove the geographical wikiproject tags in talk:Cattle Egret and that seems to be the general consensus in talk:Leatherback turtle.

Okay, there was consensus in talk:leatherback turtle and nobody here seems to care, so I'm just gonna remove it. Michael1115 (talk) 20:39, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fishing Style

[edit]

A guide at the J.N. "Ding" Darling Nature Reserve mentioned that one difference between the Anhinga and the Cormorant is how they fish: Anhinga pierce the fish with the beak, while the Cormorant grabs the fish. Dpwiki2 (talk) 18:44, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I was looking foe some mention of this hunting behavior in the entry. I have read that this is the only bird in the world that does pierce fish underwater. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CF99:2080:9CC5:1889:7631:DB8E (talk) 15:41, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
