The Secretary Bird A Unique Predator of The African Savannah 

The Secretary Bird  A Unique Predator of The African Savannah The secretary bird (Sagittarius serpentarius) is a remarkable bird of prey endemic to Africa, known for its distinctive appearance and hunting prowess. Standing up to 1.3 meters (4 feet 3 inches) tall, this large bird features an eagle-like body perched on long, crane-like legs, allowing it to navigate the open grasslands and savannahs of the sub-Saharan region with ease. The secretary bird is easily recognizable by its featherless red-orange face, predominantly grey plumage, and striking black flight feathers. This terrestrial bird spends most of its time on the ground, where it hunts for a diet primarily consisting of insects and small vertebrates, employing a unique hunting technique that involves stomping on its prey to subdue it. Please https://nisafari.com for travel tips and guides. 

 The secretary bird's survival in its habitat is closely linked to its adaptability and breeding habits. It typically builds its nest atop thorny trees, laying one to three eggs, with breeding occurring mainly during the late dry season. However, the species faces significant threats due to habitat destruction, leading to a rapid decline in its population, which is classified as Endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Despite its wide range across Africa, localized surveys indicate that conservation efforts are crucial to protect this iconic bird and its natural habitat. The secretary bird also holds cultural significance, appearing on the coats of arms of Sudan and South Africa, symbolizing its importance in the region.

Me being 4'10 and spidey 🕷️ being on the peak of the shed roof, makes for a very distant picture even with zooming in 😂🤣😂🤣. This was the best picture my short self could take. But I'm figuring it either likes my humble home or there's plenty to eat here since rescued spidey hasn't left. #spiders, #almostkilled, #rescued, #porchdweller, #gardenfriend, #wildlifelovers, #gardentime, #sheddweller, #spiderrescuer, #zigzagweb, #blackandyellowspider, #insecteater, (at Jonesboro, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnYVrWVAiH9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gy9gvfcp4rlb

These hens are very good workers. They keep slugs and snails at a minimum and cut the grass. Busy little workers. #hens #chickens #chickensinthegarden #mygardentreasures #silverspangled #wyandottes #insecteaters
