Extraordinary Birds-- With birds soaring, swooping, and sing-songing all around us, it's sometimes easy to take these finely feathered creatures for granted. But not any more. Stunning Nature photography takes flight to capture the wondrous behavior of the most extraordinary birds, some of whom have developed close relationships with humankind. The camera follows a regal, warrior-like falcon joining men in a hunt for prey; a storm of wild birds hitting a drought-ridden Indian town and bringing a monsoon along with them; a homing pigeon being awarded a medal for saving a thousand men in World War II. Meanwhile, a tiny hummingbird commutes 5,000 miles roundtrip and a pillow-faced barnyard owl attacks rats in the dark of the night 0 the most compelling in history, science, and real-life stories are all here in this special look at special birds.-- Parrots: Look Who's Talking-- They stay faithful to one mate, live long happy lives, and have the power of speech. Of course we're talking about parrots, perhaps the most extraordinary of all birds. Narrated by the classic voice of Nature, George Page, this fun, visually rich special profiles a bird of magnificent color, both in its plumage and in its personality. The program wryly alternates between the wild and the household, showing how these intelligent, remarkably affectionate, often shameless attention-seekers manage to thrive in both habitats. Adoring owners talk about their parrots, one of whom dunks cookies on command, another of whom loves an opera. In a long-awaited moment, some birds also give voice to their feelings, which seem to echo those of their owners.
