	List of Australian birds - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In consequence, the unrelated birds that fill that niche in the Americas and in Australia look and act as though they were close relatives.
		Birds recently introduced by humans: some, like the European Goldfinch and greenfinch coexist happily, others such as European Common Starlings, Blackbirds and sparrows and the Indian Mynah are destructive vermin.
		For a comprehensive listing, see the list of Australasian birds, which includes the birds of Australia, New Zealand, and the Southern Ocean.

	Bird Families of the World (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Eggs are buried, not incubated by the heat of the bird, and develop by environmental heat-- in mound-builders by decaying vegetation, with temperature regulated by the male, and in burrow nesters by geothermal volcanic heat or by solar heat on sand.
		Young are the most precocial of birds, have contour feathers when they hatch (feet first), leave the natal mound (scratch their way out while lying on their back), and feed on their own with no social behavior with other young and no other parental care.
		This list of extinct birds updates the lists in Dictionary and in Sibley and Monroe 1990 (including ground finch Neospiza concolor rediscovered in São Tomé in ca 1991, and forest owlet Heteroglaux blewitti rediscovered in India in 1997).

	emu
		The Emu, Dromaius novaehollandiae, is the largest bird native to Australia and, after the Ostrich, the second-largest bird that survives today.
		Like all birds in the Ratite group, it is flightless, although unlike some it does have tiny wings hidden under the feathers.
		The soft-feathered, brown birds reach 1.5 to 2 m in height and weigh up to 60 kg, with the male marginally smaller.

		All birds are of a feather -- descended from a reptilian or reptile-like ancestry.
		The birds themselves are the same, but our way of looking and thinking about them has been altered, and the birder who is interested in the larger issues of bird evolution, kinship, and biogeography should be fascinated and stimulated.
		In this scheme, the birds of paradise are close relatives of the crows and jays (along with the wood-swallows, Old World orioles, and cuckoo-shrikes) but not of the lyrebirds or, as was formerly widely believed, of the bowerbirds.

		Nevertheless, nondescript female and immature birds are not identified or are misidentified on nearly every Neotropical trip due to the absence of adequate field guides.
		The Red-cockaded Woodpecker is one of the most threatened birds of North America, mainly as a result of industrial logging and fire suppression in the southeastern pine forests where it lives.

		This article and the descendant family articles follow the taxonomy of the Handbook of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic Birds (HANZAB) for families largely endemic to that region, and otherwise the Handbook of Birds of the World (HBW).
		The flightless and mostly giant Struthioniformes lack a keeled sternum and are collectively known as ratites.
		With their keels, unlike the ratites, they are known as carinates.

	Birds - Night Parrot
		A bird would sit tight, flushing only if this were disturbance very close, actually affecting the clump of vegetation in which it was hiding.
		Observations of the captive bird's feeding preferences and the presence of green herbage in the crop of a specimen suggests that green plants may form a significant part of the Night Parrot's diet.
		Because of the scarcity of opportunistic reports and the failure to locate birds during targeted searches over the past three decades, it seems clear that the species is not at all common, even if it should turn out be widely distributed.

	Birds - Australian bird list
		This list includes those species of birds that have been recorded from the Australian mainland, Tasmania, island territories and surrounding waters.
		It is based on 'The Taxonomy and Species of Birds of Australia and its Territories' by Leslie Christidis and Walter E. Boles (1994.
		No attempt has been made to incorporate taxonomic revisions subsequent to Christidis and Boles; that list is currently being revised and any changes will be reflected here when it is published.

	Where do you want to go birding in New Zealand today?
		Birding New Zealand requires long treks between places, and often we would drive much of a day (through scenery that ranged from pleasant to downright spectacular) to a location that would add one or a few species to the trip list.
		There were occasions when birding took second place to other considerations, and as a result we undoubtedly missed some birding opportunities and did not see as many species as would have been possible had we dedicated the time available solely to birding.
		However, relevant information on birding, birding events, birding locations, and birds in New Zealand is also a function of the group.

	New Zealand Birds
		A great percentage of the 328 bird species (61 families) recorded within the New Zealand region (including the Antarctic territory) are of Australasian origin.
		New Zealand's birds evolved in the absence of mammals (bats were present but not a threat) and took on some unusual roles normally occupied by mammals.
		There are many introduced European and Australasian bird species, brought by early settlers in the 1800s for control of agricultural insect pests and for recreational sport shooting, such as, starling, rooks, crows, finches, thrush, myna, pheasant, quail, and waterfowl.

	Family List 6th ed
		Stability had been a goal when I began this project in 1999 [see my old essay on "choosing a family listing"], but since this is my 6th edition in 6 years, it is obvious that we are in an exciting time of rapid change in taxonomic ideas and evidence.
		The purpose of this list of Bird Families of the World is as an aid to world birders who desire to maximize their study of avian diversity by observing examples of as many bird families as possible or reasonable within the time and money available for travel.
		It is exhilarating to see new and unique birds, and bird families should (and do) structure the avian world into the most discrete and unique groups.
