A bit of extra Arctic Tern trivia - it makes the longest migration journey of any bird. http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/birds/printouts/Arcticternprintout.shtml Feb 07 03, 10:46 PM

Just how many species of bird migrate in winter? The shrike or butcher-bird is a song bird (passerine) that has the habit of impaling its prey on long thorns. No form of true shrike is found in Australia - the shrike-thrush and piping shrike and so on aren't real shrikes - or South America. Is there a bird in Australia that has this same habit? What is North America's heaviest flying bird? Which bird imprisons its mate?
