I've seen a Hamerkop nest and a Buffy Fish Owl (Not in the meet birds page) nest before.

I saw Common Swifts (Not in the 'Meet the Birds' page) flying everywhere in the country (city). Peregrine Falcons also live here but I didn't see any of this species. I also saw two species of birds flying. The White-bellied Sea-Eagle and the Brahminy Kite (which is not in the 'Meet the Birds' page). Can you please add the Brahminy Kite to Birdorable, please??? And one more question to tell you, please add the Common Swift to the list.

I've seen these bird-safe glass panels in Changi Airport, Singapore. I saw no birds flying or passing by the glass. The Oriental Pied Hornbill is one of the species can be found in some parts of Singapore, Malaysia, and also, Vietnam. I saw an Oriental Pied Hornbill in Pasir Ris Park and Hampstead Wetlands Park. Did the Burj Khalifa has bird-safe glass? I don't know.

Woodpiecer, I'm sorry for the confusion. We added it to our list of requested birds. We have not yet created the Common Swift.

I agree Woodpiecer, it would be interesting to have this design of a female Black-capped Vireo.

Some birds like antbirds and flickers not only ant, but also consume the ants as an important part of their diet.
Woodpiecer on April 26, 2024 at 7:12 PM wrote on Birds' Use of Ants in Self-Care: A Fascinating Behavioral Adaptation:
Some species of birds (Not in our list), such as Antbirds, often follow raiding parties of swarming antsā€”not to eat them but to take advantage of the insect bonanza flushed from cover by the voracious army.

Birdorable, you have to add this species to our Website, the Common Swift. They can be found all over the world except Antarctica.

I know Owls can turn their heads 270 degrees. I can tell you another fun fact about owls. Their eye color, Owls with yellow eyes hunt during the day, Owls with orange eyes can hunt during sunrise and sunset, and Owls with dark eyes hunt during the night.
