Scientists believe there are about a hundred billion birds in the world -- from 300-pound ostriches to tiny hummingbirds, from birds that can fly as fast as 180 miles an hour to some which cannot fly at all.
Despite this amazing variety, birds have many things in common as they build their nests, raise their young, and hunt for food. Robert S. Lemmon describes their similarities and differences, their habits and achievements in All About Birds.
