Birds

Is there really a bird strong enough to pick up a child? Many believe that answer is yes and that it really happened in Illinois and they have video to prove it.

Authorities say that 300 birds just fell from the sky dead in southern Illinois and they think they know the culprit that's responsible.

The highly-contagious bird flu has been discovered in backyard chickens in two different Missouri counties recently according to the Missouri Department of Agriculture.

A worker in Burlington, Iowa had a dilemma a few days ago. A bird where they worked had somehow gotten trapped behind a window with no easy way out. The Good Samaritan took action so this problem ended up having a happy ending.

A funny thing happened the other day in a neighborhood in Illinois. You might want to sit down for this. An owl decided he wanted to be a cowboy and stole a horse broom. There's video showing what happened next.

It's not easy being a wedding photographer. This is the perfect example. While trying to capture that perfect moment for a Dubuque, Iowa couple, a bird decided to photobomb in the best possible way.

(*Doorbell rings*) Who's there? (*Doorbell rings*) Who's there? (*Doorbell rings*) Who's there? This routine was repeated recently as a clever woodpecker decided to ring a Midwest family's doorbell over and over and over again.

This Midwest family may have discovered a brand new source of energy that we haven't considered before. Pigeon power based on a new video that shows their pet bird powering their ceiling fan. I have so many questions.

Well played, little girl. Well played. There's a new video of a young girl who wanted to watch hummingbirds close up so she disguised herself as a plant to make it happen (and it worked).

Never underestimate the internets ability to come up with something strange and wonderful. There's a keyboard master who has created a sweet slow jam not using musical instruments, but samples of real Missouri songbirds.
