Birds of Prey,involves a high energy output. Most birds use only high energy foods and few provide more energy than the flesh of other vertebrates.

Leaves are seldom used because of their low energy value, though caterpillars and other insects feeding on them are an important source of food for arboreal birds. This chapter and the next are concerned with two groups of orders that are reasonably classified as arboreal. The birds in the fi

In most families some kind of specialised feeding has evolved and strong, often brightly coloured and massive bills are common. The diet in most families is largely of animal origin, chiefly insects, but many kingfishers feed on fish and the hor
