Today is World Migratory Bird Day. Please say hello to the Pfeilstorch (β€˜arrow stork’). In 1822 this bird was shot in the German village of KlΓΌtz. It already had a 30-inch arrow in its neck. The arrow was made of African wood, and this bir…

On 13th October 2022 a juvenile bar-tailed godwit flew from Alaska to Tasmania without stopping – the longest nonstop flight by any animal. It took 11 days at an average speed of 51 kph. Supplementary fun fact: New Zealanders celebrate t…
