Birds Fanclub

Birds, also known as Aves, are a group of endothermic vertebrates, characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton. Birds live worldwide and range in size from the 5 cm (2 in) bee hummingbird to the 2.75 m (9 ft) ostrich. They rank as the world's most numerically-successful class of tetrapods, with approximately ten thousand living species, more than half of these being passerines, sometimes known as perching birds. Birds have wings which are more or less developed depending on the species; the only known groups without wings are the extinct moa and elephant birds. Wings, which evolved from forelimbs, gave birds the ability to fly, although further evolution has led to the loss of flight in flightless birds, including ratites, penguins, and diverse endemic island species of birds. The digestive and respiratory systems of birds are also uniquely adapted for flight. Some bird species of aquatic environments, particularly seabirds and some waterbirds, have further evolved for swimming.

Wallpaper Description:

By the time I took this photo, my husband and I had gotten to the parking lot of the restaurant that we were meeting at for my Mom's birthday. When I got out of our car, I had my camera ready for a few more pictures, even though the rainbow was starting to fade. I tried to get a photo of the restaurant sign with the rainbow in it, but the bow wouldn't cooperate.:P I had to content myself with photos of the building next to it. Later when I got these photos onto my computer, I saw a neat surprise at the top of the trees on the left. A brightly colored robin was apparently enjoying the rainbow also. :) At first I thought he was a bright red bud at the top of the tree.

PS. I guess I should have realized that the robin wouldn't show up as well in the thumbnail copy here. But if you enlarge the wallpaper, he should be easy to see on the left side of the wallpaper at the top of a tree branch. :)

Here are the other 4 wallpapers I uploaded of this rainbow.
