                                         TIGER CAT

The Tiger Cat, also known as the Little Spotted Cat, Tiger Ocelot or Oncila, is grouped along with the Ocelot and Margay into the genus Leopardus. Of these three species of wild cat the tiger cat is by far the smallest, weighing only around 7 pounds and having a body size similar to that of a domestic cat. 

Sound of the BLACK PANTHER      

African Black Panther

Although there are 100,000 African leopards and panthers, they are still endangered.
Black leopards are more commonly found in dense tropical rain forest of S.E Asia - here it is thought that the dark coloration acts as better camouflage in the low sun light conditions of the forest floor, giving the cat an advantage in hunting. She has an advantage in being able to provide more food for her young and as a result the probability of the melanistic  ( black ) gene being transferred through the population will be greater.

SOUNDS OF A HYENA

Spotted hyenas are found in grasslands,
woodlands, savannas, forest edges and mountains.
Hyenas usually bear litters of two to four cubs, 
and are born with their eyes opened.
Hyenas make a variety of sounds, including wailing calls, 
howling screams and the well-known "laughter" used 
to alert other clan members up to three miles away of a food source.

INFORMATION
The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo is a large white parrot, measuring 45cm - 50cm. It has a dark grey-black bill, a distinctive sulphur-yellow crest and a yellow wash on the underside of the wings. Sexes are similar, although the female can be separated at close range by its red-brown eye (darker brown in the male). This is a noisy and conspicuous cockatoo, both at rest and in flight. The most common call is a distinctive loud screech, ending with a slight upward inflection. Young Sulphur-crested Cockatoos resemble the adults.
The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo is similar in appearance to the three species of corella found in Australia. Corellas are smaller, however, and lack the prominent yellow crest.

The Rare Beautiful Albino Peacock
The White Peacock is the albino brother of the blue peacock.

THE BIRTH OF A HUMMINGBIRD

This is truly amazing. Be sure to click on NEXT PAGE at the bottom of each page; there are 5 pages in all. A lady found a hummingbird nest and got pictures all the way from the egg to leaving the nest. It took 24 days from birth to flight. Because you'll probably never in your lifetime see this again, enjoy; and please share.    http://community-2.webtv.net/Velpics/HUM/
