Pipingplover and killdeer

Did you know that Pipingplovers and killdeer are cousins? Yea really! You may not believe it, but it is true. Also, did you know that they live on the great lakes, and the great plains?  They also pretend to have a broken wing and drive predators away from the nest to keep their eggs safe. I have seen that action before with a Killdeer. Be careful, Pipingplovers are endangered species.

Go bless you

Barn Owls

Barn Owls give a high shrieking sound and help farmers by killing rats, mice and other rodents. They also have a heart shaped disk like face that helps it to hear so well that it can hear mouses squeak for miles, and they are beautiful.

God bless you!
