Captured from a WONDERFUL MULTIMEDIA CD-ROM title,
"Eyewitness Encyclopedia of Nature",
Dorling Kindersley Multimedia, 1995
THESES TWO GROUPS of birds look different, but are close relatives. They both have feet with two toes pointing forward and two pointing backward. When they fly, they flap their wings in short bursts so that they rise and fall as they move through the air.
RED-BELLIED WOODPECKER
This woodpecker feeds on insects and visits garden birdfeeders in the winter.
TOCO TOUCAN
This toucan's beak is not as heavy as it looks. It is hollow, and has thin rods of bone inside it for strength and support.
