GREAT CORMORANT‼️

Widespread throughout the world, these beautiful birds has a pretty primitive appearance, its long neck giving it an almost reptilian look. This bird is a supreme fisher, and this ability may be used in the Far East to man’s advantage, or considered as competition in several other countries where these cormorants are persecuted❗️

On land Great cormorants are clumsy but they are fast and agile when swimming.
Capable of diving up to 150 meters and staying up to 70 seconds under water, Cormorants are excellent fish hunters. Diet includes numerous kind of fish along with crustaceans, amphibians and insects.

As their feathers get easily water logged, drying it becomes quite a need to prepare themselves for the next set of dives and that’s one reason you often find them perched on ground or on logs stretching the wings open against the wind or the sun. This may also aid in the digestion of prey❗️

The word ‘Cormorant’ comes from Latin 'corvus marinus', meaning ‘Sea Crow'.
Great cormorants have been seen swallowing small pebbles for extra weight in order to dive more easily, which they regurgitate after feeding❗️

These birds incubate their eggs with their large webbed feet. The eggs are placed on top of their feet, where they are warmed between their feet and their body❗️

Great cormorants are often regarded as competitors by fishermen, though are sometimes used to catch fish, wearing a neck collar to stop them swallowing the fish and send off from a boat to fish❗️

WILSON’S BIRD OF PARADISE ‼️

You probably won’t see a more fancy looking bird than Wilson’s bird of Paradise. Not only it is known for its bright colors and elaborate tail feathers, but its complex mating rituals will make you smile and shake your head at the same time❗️

The name "Wilson's bird of paradise" is coined by Napoleon's nephew who described the unknown bird that was purchased by British naturalist Edward Wilson.
The Malay people of Indonesia call them “Birds of Gods” ❗️

Being omnivorous, they enjoy eating a balanced diet of fruits and some small insects. Wilson’s Bird of Paradise have a lifespan of 7-8 years in in the wild and live only on the islands of Batanta and Waigeo at West Papua❗️

The males are polygynous, meaning that they mate with multiple females at a time❗️

An area inside the dense forest is chosen as the dance arena to attract the females. The male bird is obsessed with cleaning his arena before inviting a female over to his place. He is also meticulous about sweeping his dance floor clean of falling leaves and other debris.

Now he takes a peculiar frozen posture while perched on a vertical branch in the middle of the dance arena, flexing his brilliant green collar and call out loud to attract the females to his site. Once the female arrives, he starts to display his bright colors and begin to vocalize with her.

As the ritual intensifies, he expands his throat feathers into a wide disc around his neck and face. Impressed by his performance, the female allows to mate and will proceed with her own business of building nest and raising the young ones. The male heads back to the arena to attract a new female ❗️

N O R T H E R N C U S C U S with BABY ‼️

An elusive arboreal marsupial, quite slow and sluggish in movements, the Northern Cuscus is native to the New Guinea and adjacent islands❗️

Being nocturnal , they move thru the tress at night foraging for food and rests during the day in dense foliage high up in the canopy❗️

Extremely secretive in nature, spotting one in the wild is pretty hard and it was an exuberant experience and so lovely to watch the baby climbing into its mother’s pouch❗️

Solitary in life and polygamous by choice, they meet other Cuscus only for mating. Females gives birth after a couple of weeks of pregnancy. 2 to 3 babies are born and the newborns will crawl into the mother's pouch and spends 6 -7 months to finish their development. In most cases only one baby survives. Cuscus reaches sexual maturity at the age of one year❗️

Though an omnivore, its diet primarily consists of fruits, flowers, and leaves. Occasionally, however, it will also snack on small birds and reptiles❗️

Although they look somewhat of a mix between a monkey and a sloth, the Cuscus is actually a subspecies of the Possum.
Grey Cuscus or the Common Phalanger are the alternative names for this really calm and docile creatures❗️
