Birdie Tip: Bird care becomes easier if you keep multiple bowl and bottle replacements on hand. You can remove the dirty dish and replace it with a clean one, and wash the dirty one.

Bird Brain Information: The ostrich has the largest egg; the hummingbird has the smallest. Relative to body weight, the kiwi has the largest egg.
