Bird communication is a complex and evolving science. The six chapters that follow explore bird communication in mating; defending territory; rearing children; responding to predators; interacting with neighbors and functioning in large groups; and communicating successfully in a noisy human world. There is so much here!

As you can easily judge from the dullness of this information, it is not something I made up but rather an appalling example of nepotism in the naming of birds. If you have always wondered what the minimum anesthetic concentration for isoflurane and sevoflurane for the Crested Serpent-eagle is, science has an answer.

It’s a matter of personal preference: neither does every reader like, say, science fiction, or the writing of Henry James, or romance novels. The wealth and depth of information about birds and birding, and the intertwining of birds into each plot, makes them irresistible. There’s no accounting for taste.

Quite likely, these birds are also the inspiration for Australian science communicator Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki. According to the HBW entry for this species, it “has been claimed that loss of native mammals after European settlement created shortage of nesting material, explaining this species’ penchant for taking hair from humans.”

The answer lies in the information I just provided; how long everything takes when you’re an albatross. It is a surprisingly difficult question for science to address, but it can say this. The same evolutionary pressures that drove humans to evolve the capacity for love have had their way with the albatrosses.

The Telomere does not contain useful genetic information, but rater, acts as a buffer. In humans, adults (probably mainly mothers) do this thing called “motherese” which is talking in a way one would normally not talk to another adult, to a baby. Telomeres are repetitive sequences of genetic material sitting at the ends of genes.
