In this short book, ornithologist Mark E. Hauber shows readers exactly how birds spend their time. Each chapter covers a single bird during a single hour, highlighting twenty-four different bird species from around the globe, from the tropics through the temperate zones to the polar regions. We encounter owls and nightjars hunting at night and kiwis and petrels finding their way in the dark. As the sun rises, we witness the beautiful songs of the \"dawn chorus.\" At eleven o'clock in the morning, we float alongside a common pochard, a duck resting with one eye open to avoid predators. At eight that evening, we spot a hawk swallowing bats whole, gorging on up to fifteen in rapid succession before retreating into the darkness. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor each chapter, award-winning artist Tony Angell has depicted these scenes with his signature pen and ink illustrations, which grow increasingly light and then dark as our bird day passes. Working closely together to narrate and illustrate these unique moments in time, Hauber and Angell have created an engaging read that is a perfect way to spend an hour or two--and a true gift for readers, amateur scientists, and birdwatchers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePreface\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist's Note\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMidnight: Barn Owl (Worldwide)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 AM: Little Spotted Kiwi (New Zealand)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2 AM: Oilbird (South America)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3 AM: Kākāpō (New Zealand)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e4 AM: Common Nightingale (Eurasia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e5 AM: Brown-Headed Cowbird (North America)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6 AM (Sunrise): Silvereye (Australasia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e7 AM: Bee Hummingbird (Caribbean)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8 AM: American Robin (North America)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9 AM: Eclectus Parrot (Australasia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10 AM: Indian Peafowl (Asia, Introduced Worldwide)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e11 AM: Common Pochard (Eurasia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNoon: Ocellated Antbird (Central America)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 PM: Secretary Bird (Africa)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2 PM: Emperor Penguin (Antarctica)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3 PM: Superb Starling (Africa)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e4 PM: Common Cuckoo (Eurasia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e5 PM: Indian Myna (Asia, Introduced Worldwide)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6 PM (Sunset): Standard-Winged Nightjar (Africa)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e7 PM: Great Snipe (Eurasia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8 PM: Bat Hawk (Africa and Asia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9 PM: Black-Crowned Night Heron (Worldwide)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10 PM: Cook's Petrel (New Zealand)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e11 PM: European Robin (Eurasia)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEpilogue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFurther Reading\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIndex\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Stunning. . . .

Similar to ibis, flamingos feed on algae and crustaceans that have carotenoid pigments. The pigments, once ingested, create a flamingo's pink coloring. However, a flamingo's color doesn't come at birth. Several years must pass before they reach peak color and grow their distinctive curved bills. Flamingos are incredibly social birds; they congregate in a flock called a flamboyance and are always near bodies of water. Here, flamingos find mates for life and begin families with one egg per year.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChristin Farley\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of several books for kids.
