Here's a few things I didn't know about wildlife:

1. The world's smallest bird, the Bee Hummingbird, is slightly larger than the eye of the world's largest bird, the ostrich (courtesy of ThinkQuest)
2. Squirrels cross roads in front of cars in an erratic fashion, in hopes of confusing the car and making it change direction
3. Hummingbirds are only found in the Americas, from Alaska to South America
4. Butterflies range in size from the almost 12 inches of the Queen Alexandra's Birdwing (New Guinea) to the 1/8 inch of the Western Pygmy Blue of Africa
5. Most birds, beyond owls and hawks, see more acutely than humans
6. Groundhogs are the largest member of the squirrel family
7. 365 species of squirrels in 7 families; 339 hummingbird species and more than 700 butterfly species in the Americas; and over 2000 bird species in Central and North America
8. Squirrels take siestas in the afternoon
9. Certain butterflies will sip at bird excrement, of all things
10. A group of owls is called a parliament
