Geese

There are 3 different types of geese found the globe-grey geese(Anser),black geese(Branta),and white geese(Chen).Geese are medium to large in size and can be domesticated easily.There are many species of the same,most of which migrate to various places each year.This bird is vegetarian by nature ,therefore not a favorite when it comes to farmers trying to protect their crops.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Native to arctic and temperate regions of North America,its migration occasionally reaches northern Europe.It has been introduced to the United Kingdom ,Newzeland,Argentina,Chile,and the Falkland Islands.Like most Geese ,the Canada geese is primarily herbivorous and normally migratory,it tends to be found on or close to fresh water.                                                                                                          

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Canada Geese are sometimes eat small insects,and fish.their diet includes green vegetation  and grains.The Canada Geese eats a varity of grasses when on land.It feeds by grasping a blade of grass with the bill.Then tearing it with a jerk of the head.The Canada Geese also eats beans and grains such as wheat,rice,and corn when they are available,in the water,it feeds from silt at the bottom of the body of water.It also feeds on aquatic plants ,such as seaweeds.In urban areas,it is also known to pick food out of garbage bins.

Catbirds

Catbirds are known to imitate the sounds of other birds.They are gray in color,and have a shade of chestnut,just under their tail.Different species of Catbirds are found in various parts of the world-Spotted Catbird,Green Catbird,White-eared Catbirds,Tooth-billed Catbirds,Gray Catbird,Black Catbird,and Abyssinian Catbird.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Catbirds are secretive but energetic,hopping and fluttering from branch to branch through tangles of vegetation.Singing males sit a top shrubs and small trees.Catbirds are reluctant to fly across open areas,preferring quick ,low flights over vegetation.They mainly eat arthropods and berries,in the winter months bear fruit well liked by this species,and such trees can be planted to attract by gray catbirds into park and gardens.

Bald Eagles

The Bald Eagles  with its snowy-feathered head and white tail,is the proud national bird symbol of the United States-yet the bird was nearly wiped out there.For many decades,bald eagles were hunted for sport and for the protection of fishing grounds.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        The bald eagle is found in marshes and coastlines.They have very large and broad wings,with a broad tail. the head and tail are white in color,which is the major distinguisable factor of the bald eagle.The long,hooked bill is yellow in color.They prey fish,douks,rabbits,raccoons,beavers,geese,gulls,reptiles etc.
