In this section you have the dual opertunities of asking questions that bug you for answering AND answer those questions that have gone un-answered!

• When do Hairy Woodpeckers lay their eggs in Minnesota, U.S.A.?
• I am only in midddle school but i am starting to look into collage. I know that I want to major in Avian Science. The only collage that i have found that offers Avian Science as a major is UC davis. Dose anyone know of any in North or South america that offers Avian Science as a major?
• Swifts, Swallows and House martins are closely associated with human structures (in the UK at least). What did they use for nesting sites before men built such structures? Cliffs, caves etc? If so just how common were they? If they were scarce and they are now quite common, has the eco system adapted to them already or were there far more flying insects?
• I am looking for a pigeon guillemot expert. I would like some info on making nest boxes and nest hole for the pigeon guillemot on my property on Hood Canal in Washinton state.
• 'Birds Britannica' records that swifts move "..clockwise around low-pressure systems .." while feeding; and that they "..fly straight towards the unstable air at the rear of a depression where insects are present in extraordinary abundance ..." How do swifts recognise changes in pressure and use this information to guide them towards food sources ?
• I am looking for resources on research done on African birds, in particular the birds of southern Africa. Any suggestions?
