This week we have a beak that specializes in using tools, by breaking ostrich eggs with a small rock. This bird, once known as "Pharoh's Chicken," was the symbol of the ancient Egyptian goddess, Nekhbet.
These eyes light up when they see rabbit!
Unlike most raptors, this bird doesn't use its talons to carry nesting material, preferring to use its beak instead.Good luck solving the riddle of this week's mystery beak!
Egyptian Vulture! But I'm a little cheater, because I worked with Miss Osiris this summer. :) She's such a good bird! Oh, and by the way - I love your blogs. I check them almost every day!
