didn’t sample enough taxa to resolve these questions, so the deep relationships among these groups will need further work. Jarvis et al. Pelicans are separate but are related to Hamerkop and Shoebill , and that group is related to herons and ibises. Jarvis et al. Core Landbirds. Jarvis et al.

I thought of this experience as I read Still the Same Hawk , a collection of twelve essays about nature and New York City, edited by John Waldman.

So sorry, but this is a necessary part of our thought experiment!) Let’s do another thought experiment. First, I set the dial to produce the kind of high energy radioactive radiation stuff that would be emitted by an atomic bomb, and calibrate it to dose you (sorry, but this is necessary for our thought experiment!)
