The video "Bird Brain" introduced me to a lot of information about birds. In this video, I learned about bird intelligence, communication, and emotions. There are many types of birds. In the video, Kea is a large parrot in the Nestoridae family in the forests and high mountains of New Zealand’s South Island. Kea is known for his ingenuity and curiosity, which is essential for their survival in the harsh mountain environment. In the video, the researchers introduced me to different birds such as parrots, crows, and gannets. The researchers mainly experimented to show the intelligence and expression of birds. For example, researchers conducted string pull tests on crows and parrots. In this test, it is shown that birds and parrots are very smart (8:20). Subsequently, the researchers introduced us to the way birds communicate with each other. For example, females and males of gannets communicate through sound and mate (37:20).
At the same time, this video also discusses animal feelings. All animals are emotional. We also read in TIME that many animals such as birds and elephants are emotional. They express their emotions differently. For example, in TIME, the elephant condolences its dead companion. In this video, it is also conveyed that birds are also expressive.




Melody, how does the video discuss feelings? I'd love to learn more. I enjoyed reading about the different types of topics you learned about in "Bird Brain".
