Bird of the Week: Big Bird
Big Bird is an eight-foot two-inch-tall bright yellow bird. He can roller
skate, ice skate, dance, sing, write poetry, draw, and even ride a unicycle.
He lives in a large nest at 123 Sesame Street, and has a teddy bear named
Radar. His lovable, innocent, and curious personality has helped endear him
to millions of children and adults all over the world.
Big Bird is a flightless bird, of indeterminate species and genus,
describing himself at different times as a "Golden Condor", a lark, or a
canary. Regardless of his species, he is a unique and talented creature who
has helped educate generations of children, appeared on countless television
shows and movies, and even has his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Big Bird's conservation status is perilous. He is likely the last of his
species, with no female having been found so far. He is now nearly 43 years
old, but it is not known if this is past breeding age, should a mate ever
turn up. However, he continues to travel around the world and has been
sighted in 140 countries so far, making him perhaps the most migratory bird
in history.
Big Bird's popularity is just another example of the positive impact of
birds on society and culture.
