Скачать или смотреть Clark's Nutcracker and the Whitebark Pine

I've been looking for Clark's nutcrackers for about a year, when one day, quite unexpectedly, I found them.

There was so much being communicated.

Then it got quiet, as they turned their efforts to clusters of pine cones, driving their strong bills in between the scales, to pull out the seeds. Many times, they'd create their own make-shift perch, by holding on to a foot-full of pine needles.

They can store 30-150 seeds in their sublingual pouch- that's the expandable area of their throat.
