Dear WW: there must be a lot of interesting words about birds. If the birds like ostriches,
moas,casskwaries, kiwis, and emus are "ratites" meaning they run, what is the term for birds that hop, jumping
with both feet toegether?
Today at park there were herons perching in trees, which I have never seen before.
And a new flock of white pelicans, in oval formation, stalking a school of fingerlings, and
in unison siddenly upending to catch them. I've never before seen birds use teamwork llike that. Is
there a special word for that?
