Love your videos as always!
Small correction at 1:19, birds don’t have XX/XY sex chromosomes. They use ZZ/ZW, and females are actually the ones with the heteromorphic pair (ZW) instead of males.
Fun fact, this trait is what allows individual cuckoos of the same species to have very different-looking eggs.
While cuckoos parasitize many other species of bird, female cuckoos will *always* lay their eggs in the same type of nest they were raised in. Because the trait for egg coloration is on the W chromosome, which is always given to them from their mom, it allows each “line” of mother-daughter cuckoos to have different colored eggs without mixing with the other cuckoos in their species.
This is what has led to their egg mimicry being so effective on such a variety of other species.

😮
I was just about to point out the chromosome problem. 👍
Thank you!!! Great reminder!
Thanks for the information!
I have autism and one of my special interests are animals, insects and taxidermy. Your videos are my favourite, so relaxing and i love the way you deliver information. Never give this stuff up!!
try chess
@@lo0ksikshut up😂
Insects are animals so it's kind of odd you said them separately as if they're different
Me tooo❤❤❤
@@lo0ksika
Wow, that bird really DID just straight up say "go away." Wild.
If you think a bird called Go Away is bizarre, search up a dik dik..
Yes
Me personally I wouldn't let a bird talk to me like that
Oh my god. This guys voice is so loving and calming. You can tell he really loves talking about this. I LOVE the passion!!!!
His videos are informative about animals and also calming too, just perfect for relaxing.
I KNOW U
perfect with a cup of morning coffee❤
Mista beast
@@Buhleepyeah!
That's exactly my reason
Wait... don't birds have WZ sex chromosomes, not XY? As in, a male bird has ZZ and a female bird has WZ? They're thought to develop when a female ovum (egg cell) doesn't split properly, so instead of just containing a W chromosome, it also contains a Z, each one in a separate nucleus. So it's like having two ova cells in one. When it's fertilised, by the male Z-containing gametes, it results in one-half of the bird having the male pairings (ZZ) and the other containing the female pairing (WZ).
I just made a comment about this! Haha I should’ve looked harder to see if anyone else mentioned it first.

I was just going to comment they are ZW WW not XY XX
@@bird2034 Cuckoos are amazing, even if I have a tough time not anthropomorphizing their behaviour. LOL I saw an entire documentary about their egg morphs and how effective they are etc, and it was SO fascinating! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Einstein 😂
@@angelicacolon6853 Tone marker needed so I know whether to laugh and say thanks, or mute you for being a troll...!
i always love when there is an "ERROR!" message. i always wait for them. i love your videos
The way you make your videos is just mesmerizing. The choice of colors and music, especially those subtle piano notes that go along with the video, they're all just chef's kiss
as an autistic person I just want to say I absolutely adore your videos and how they sound/feel because of how you edit!! it’s very satisfying sensory wise while learning about something I love 😊
You clearly grew up with Mr Rogers to nail the vibes so well :) Thanks for bringing back this feeling in my life
I have ADHD with strong focusing problems and your videos are one of the only things that capture my attention and help me understand the information.
Same ADHD
My cat LOVES this channel. The calming voice puts her in such a calm and relaxed mood
....ok
Ufhhhvnjif
I bet this video made your cat hungry!
@@oddessashepered9021 bruh............................
I don't like you
I am currently 12 and im really hoping to become an ornithologist, this video was super helpful and i learned so much more about birds!
Edit: wow that's a lot of likes and you lot are so kind with the replies! ❤
Hold on to your dreams and don't lose your passion! I always thought that being a Designer is hard to become.. and now at the age of 17 I'm actually studying it!! Xoxo
@@midarisgunscenethank you!!
Don’t give up on those dreams
Omg that’s awesome!! I’m 20 and studying to be an ornithologist myself, but knew I wanted to study birds since I was around 8 or 9. It’s totally possible to achieve your dreams! I sincerely wish you the best of luck 😊.
Same I am 11 and I loved Dino’s when I was 10 but now I don’t care about them
I love the little piano sounds that play when you show something.😊
Charlie... you are the modern Mr. Rogers of Zoology.
Thank you for that.
😂😂😂 🎶“Gooawayyyyyy”🎶 That Bird got me 😂😂😂😂
Can u make more videos about u exploring the museum vaults. They're kinda fun 😊
I love your content and the new format which is very family friendly TV ready, but I did really enjoy your "hey dudes" vibe you were using before, you have a very natural comfortable conversational buddy tone that was nice and felt very casual like a friend talking to me and was really funny, it'd be nice to have a few episodes of the old style still every now and again. 🙂
Words cannot describe how much I love this channel and the videos, I have autism, and these videos are like a sensory toy, I love the music and editing so much!
I knew bird's bones were different, but I didn't know they could hold air in them 😍
... I just got remembered why I subscribed xD
These videos with everything feel like a kids show here in germany called "die Sendung mit der maus" it is a show that shows kids (and the grown ups too) how things work or how they are produced. And it's the same vibe. It's calm, doesn't make you seem like an idiot and tells you the correct terms for what happens or how the tools work and stuff.
And now I have found the english equivalent for that, but with animals. I love it. The whole arrangement is calm and nice and you just enjoy learning.
Your meditation vibe in your videos is unique and really captivating.
One little thing that breaks the flow for me is the "faux-raccord" when in the close up you point in the left page of the book and in the next cut your pointing in the opposite side of the book. It gets me out of the ambiance every time.
Thanks for your really enjoyable videos!
autism . jk
Love your videos! I feel like a kid with some ASMR learning and relaxing at the same time! Keep it up ❤👍🏻
Is it just me, or does it sound like he would have an amazing singing voice?
Humans can also sing two notes at once. Its a technique called polyphonic singing. Avi Kaplan, former member of pentatonix does this super well
That singular paragraph in that book must be the Holy Grail of bird tidbits haha.
Edit: I actually tagged that generic "Eagle" sound as a Red-Tailed Hawk when I was young. I'd always wondered why they'd use the same sound for eagles and whatnot in movies and cartoons. I lived in the PNW most of my life, so I knew what a Bald Eagle sounds like. I searched out different bird noises at the library (I spent most of my after-school days at the library, as I enjoyed reading).
I love that the "truth" is coming out haha. It's interesting what mainstream media can change or twist factually.
As someone in New England we see hawks often, you hear them almost daily in the warmer months where I am. You’d know it if you saw an eagle. I’m mass you see both
gosh
i love your videos so incredibly much
they're so calming and comforting...
when i watch them my anxiety goes away and i start tearing up (because i feel comfy)
please,keep it up
i love you and your channel ❤
I been lied to about the bald eagle 😭
Watching These Videos With A Piano Sound in The Background Make Me Forget About all my Problems for Straight 10 Mins
Why does it feel like I am watching Curious George?
Maybe sounds
😆
now me, a neurodivergent girly, is gonna go tell everyone i can possibly find about the new eagle fact i learned 😊
i love the tone of your videos! i must commend you on your commentary. it seems you put a lot of work into it to make it a relaxing and informative experience and i absolutely love it!
I love this video so much, I’m a huge bird enthusiast, I love watching them and cared for them when I still lived at my parents’. I’ve always been fascinated by single birds sounding like they just multiplied. 😋
Your videos are so nice and calming the style you use is incredible
Didn't know a go away bird was a thing but i need one to guard my home 😂
I’m gonna download the entirety of this channel so I could use it as an educational series.
Blew my mind! Bone breathing birds! Who'd have thunk it
Thought*
my favourite is a group of owls being called a parliament i think its adorable
I like how this man became exponentially more calm as time went on.
These videos would make wonderful sunday morning programs ☺️ i love them so much!!!
I’m quite surprised that he can find any type of evidence on the same page, sentence and chapter 😲
It is a good paragraph
When I'm a teacher, these ware the only videos I would use to explain the systems and overall things about animals. They're my favorite!!
I Love how every one of your video is calming and informative
These videos make me feel like I’m 6 years old again, I love it too much.
Your videos are just awesome. You explain everything so beautifully and patiently that not only kids but anybody gets the knowledge in the right way. My son loves it so much.
Im so amazed how you always find you're answer on this page 0:53
:D
I have become fan of your videos after watching just 2 of them. Subscribed anf watched thru the ad to show support. I always sympathize with content creators who put a lot of effort in making it...just for the sake of perfection and the joy of creating.
The sound design for these videos is phenomenal
I am sl glad I found your channel, its so informative and calming

Each video is truly a gift thank you
Your videos excellently demonstrate that art can come in any form. My daughter and I love them so much, and rewatch them often. They feel like those rare favourite books that are beautiful, educational, and inspiring. But somehow transformed into video form, and thereby enriched even further.
"Go awaaaay go- go awaaay" i love this bird
Beautiful...
Just found your channel, i love these videos already!
8:09 rodan appears!
your videos are sooo calm and relaxing, they also teach me alot of things!! ❤❤❤❤
8:08 it looks like a giant bird for a second!
i love love love the way you speak and use piano in these videos ,, it always helps me focus more.
Man! Your video’s sounds are amazing. I love it!
I love nature its like a rare place for me!
listening to this guy talk makes me sleepy. plus the piano sounds makes it even more calming
I like the piano and the vocal tones, it reminds me of old school PBS shows.
These videos give me such PBS vibres of something i'd watch as a kid
I like your gentle voice. It’s good for children to listen to and soothing for adults to listen to.
Imagine if we had the respiratory system of birds! To us, it would be like having a double lung and breathing capacity. The syrinx on the other hand, would not only be like having two sets of vocal cords, but also voluntarily choosing one of each windpipe or both at once
ur videos are so relaxing to listen to 💖💖
Not sure if it is intentional, rather doubt it tbh, but you are like a perfect copy of Christoph from Sendung mit der Maus. The soft music cues, voice over with just gestures and facial expressions, calm, educational explanations that are set in a way as if you discovered them as you explain it. This is seriously well done
im in my bird obsession phase and i’ve researched and drew and learned basically everything about birds so me shouting the answers like “that’s not a bald eagle it’s a hawk!!!!!” was really fun thank you for this
Great video Mr. Roger!
The peacefulness is incredible
Your videos are so relaxing. Relaxation + learning = relearning
The style of your videos is so charming. I can’t really describe it but it just calms my entire nervous system….
The Willow Ptarmigan sounds like they are saying "Banana! Banana!"
I love your videos so much!
i really love how slow you talk, its quite easy to listen to and quickly understand❤
me and my mom love to watch these together on the TV!! its so interesting
Words can't describe how much i love this video
Great content. I don't know if this style is aimed at children or adults, but I am completely enthralled. I don't know whether the relaxing style is going to help me sleep, or if I will stay up all night watching more of your videos. In either case, you've earned a new subscriber.
I love the loon's song! gave me the vibes of a forest flute call
So relaxing and educational!!
if i ever have a child, its getting this type of channel 24/7
I love the Mr. Rogers vibe so much!
i love animals, and science. i love them even more because of you. ah so relaxing 😌
Love this video. Discovered this on accident. You’re getting a new subscriber. 👍
I Have Asperger’s Syndrome (very high functioning autism) and have always been interested in science but I never thought that I would be interested in biology. Thanks for the awesome videos.
Genuinely, even after understanding how unidirectional breathing works, I don’t get how birds breathe the their bones… where does the air go? Is it just extra space? Do the holes lead somewhere? I need a visual explanation of the flow of air through a bird to get it.
I know that they breathe in, filling air sacs, then then air sacs fill their lungs making it so that they have a constant supply of fresh air, unlike humans who breathe in and out and only get fresh air 50% of the time. But where do the hollow bones enter this equation? Do the bones lead to the air sacs? I can’t find a single decent diagram, or video online that shows how it works…
I’d be very grateful if someone could help me understand it or direct me to a video that shows how it works.
5:05 lol funny sound for me
Thank you for such an interesting video!❤

The Painted Bunting is a very beautiful green.
This is so calming
I'm a grown adult and I feel as if I'm watching PBS. 😂 I love it. Miss the simpler days as a kid learning on PBS.
I love your teaching😊😊
Marvelous, 10/10
I have red tailed hawks that fly over my neighborhood in the summer. The first time I heard them screech I was kind of blown away.
This video is really beautiful
This bird saying "the mail" lmao 5:03
Very peacefull video
The blues clues vibe your video gives off is very relaxing and warm
The Mister Roger's style piano accompaniment is great and I hope you expand on that because it's actually genius. Actually, the eagle sounds so seagullish to me, which I think is funny.
thanks for your great videos! sadly kiwico is not available in germany
