birds

It's easy to chalk weird experiences up to coincidence. But sometimes you have to ask if there's another explanation. Did I get a visit from my late grandma?

A unique animal encounter at the Utica Zoo is just a brief example of the appeal of a Central New York institution.

The most famous birds in Central New York, the Utica peregrine falcons, Astrid and Ares, have produced their first egg for the 2016 breeding season.

Central New York has seen a relatively mild winter. Could an early Spring be on the way? Thousands of snow geese seem to think so. They've migrated back to the area in a flock like you've never seen.

Utica's new Peregrine Falcon chicks now have names.

Looking to get birds in your backyard? You don't have to spend a ton of money on fancy bird feeders, you can make your own! Here's a few different redneck bird feeder ideas you can make at your home or office.

A group of 4th graders in New Hampshire took a field trip to the state legislature because they wanted to make the red-tailed hawk the state raptor (bird of prey). What was expected to be a fun-filled trip that would allow kids to learn how government works turned into an absolute nightmare!

What would you do if swarms of birds invaded your home? Dozens of them flying inside your house and pooping everywhere? Like something out of a horror movie (remember Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds?") swarms of birds have invaded this California home.

We'll bet that you've never seen birds in flight like this. Two young filmmakers in Ireland, Sophie and Liberty, caught on video a natural phenomenon that shows nature at it's most amazing.

Now I've seen everything. Watch this bird actually climb aboard a bottle cap and sled down a rooftop in Russia. If it happened once I'd be amazed, but since the bird actually sets up the bottle cap for a second run, well, we just had to share this video with you.

If you're like most people, you've probable asked yourself, "Hey, I wonder who'd win a race between a parrot and a dog." Well, wonder no more.

A new terrifying threat has been discovered in Russia and is fortunately only affecting the pigeon population so far.
