Did you know about birds travelling across continents with sticks on their feet?

You have heard many interesting stories about birds. The eagle is commonly known as the king of birds. An eagle normally does not hunt without any idea, it goes to catch fish only after practising how to hunt and how to jump prey before it hunts.

 More than all this, some of the actions of birds that can travel from continent to continent are surprising. Those birds fly very far. Thus, the food available to the birds is essential during their travels.

But the area where birds mostly fly is the watery sea area so it is very difficult to get food in that sea area. This type of transcontinental bird flies by holding a stick on its leg while flying.

After flying for a long distance, it descends due to fatigue and puts the stick on the sea and then sits on the stick and floats to find the food it needs. In this way, even the birds think skillfully and meet their food needs.

  The hummingbird, which weighs only about 3 grams, flies non-stop for 8000 kilometres from North America to Mexico.

The bird called Arctic tern travels very far, this bird can fly from the North Pole to the South Pole i.e. up to 35,000 kilometres.

Among the birds, some birds are very clever; the bird called Hornbill uses a clever way to keep its chicks from being taken away. When this type of bird lays its eggs, the female bird hides in a wooden nest and closes the nest's mouth.

There is only a small opening for feeding prey. The male bird goes out and collects the prey and gives it to the female bird and the chicks thus the bird fully protects her chicks.

 Among the birds that can migrate from continent to continent, the North American continent bird occupies a special place. They are more common in the northern part of North America along the Canadian side of the lake.

 It travels continuously for three and a half days without covering a distance of about 3500 km from the South American continent to the South Pole. During this 86-hour flight, about 70 hours will be required to fly at an altitude of more than 7000 meters. At that height, the oxygen level is very low but even a small amount of oxygen can travel a long distance and reach its destination.
