Ducks

Ducks are very unique birds.Ducks are found on all the continents except for Antarctica. All ducks belong to the bird family, Anatidae. A baby duck is a duckling, an adult male duck is a drake, and an adult female is called a hen or a duck. Ducks feathers are extra waterproof due to an intricate feather structure and a waxy coating. The feathers are so waterproof that even when they are completely underwater their soft underfeathers that keep them warm stay dry. Ducks are omnivorous, which means they will eat both meat and plants. They eat many types of food such as, grass, aquatic plants, insects, seeds, fruit, fish, crustaceans and other types of food.

Art Cars

Art cars definition:what people make when they want an interesting car

Have you ever seen a car like this, it is an art car. Art cars are an extremely strange example of art. Some art cars are just in museums while others people actually drive. Art cars can be anything from a normal car with a bunch of flattened soupcans glued on to it like a monster to an alien car.

Yeti Crab

Yeti crabs were found in piles around hydrothermal vents on the seafloor. They were discovered along the Southern Ocean floor near Antarctica. British scientists led by Alex Rogers found them on an expedition in 2010. They were found with 600 crabs per sq. metre!

Yeti crabs have hair on their legs and claws while other crabs have no hair! Isn't that weird? These little crabs live in warm waters but look like the Abominable Snowman mixed with a crab.

Fathead Sculpin Fish

For my first blog I decided to do the funniest and weirdest thing I could think of that I saw recently.

This strange fish is called a Fathead Sculpin Fish. The little flap of skin that looks like a nose is actually fat. Most of this weird fish is made up of fat. It is amazing these things can even move. They eat crustaceans, mollusks, and sea urchins. One, called Mr. Blobby Fish, even has his own Facebook page.
